Whether organising your iTunes library, receiving music recommendations from apps like Spotify, or buying CDs at a record store, genre is the first way in which we navigate the music we like.</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>However, technological advances have now put millions of songs at our fingertips through mobile devices. Not only do we have access to more music than ever before, but more music is being produced. Places like <a href="https://soundcloud.com/">SoundCloud</a> have made it possible for anyone to record and publish music for others to hear. With this increased diversity in music that we are exposed to, the lines separating genres have become even more blurred than they were previously.</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>Genre labels are problematic for several reasons. First, they are broad umbrella terms that are used to describe music that vary greatly in their characteristics. If a person says they are a fan of “rock” music, there is no way of knowing whether they are referring to The Beatles, Bob Dylan, or Jimi Hendrix — but all three vary greatly in style. Or if a person tells you that they are a fan of pop music, how do you know if they are referring to Michael Jackson or Justin Bieber?</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><figure class="align-center "></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> <img alt="" src="https://62e528761d0685343e1c-f3d1b99a743ffa4142d9d7f1978d9686.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/files/133093/width754/image-20160804-496-ka2he8.jpg"></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> <figcaption></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> <span class="caption">Where to start?</span></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> <span class="attribution"><span class="source">Ollyy/Shutterstock.com</span></span></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> </figcaption></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> </figure></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>Genre labels are also often socially driven with little to do with the actual characteristics of the music.

A more accurate way to label music would be based solely on their actual musical characteristics (or attributes). Such a labelling system would also likely better account for diversity in a person’s music taste.</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>Recently, my team of music psychologists addressed this problem by developing a scientific way to create a basic classification system of music that is based on its attributes and not social connotations. The team included expert in musical preferences, Jason Rentfrow (Cambridge), best-selling author and neuroscientist Daniel Levitin (McGill), big data scientists David Stillwell (Cambridge) and Michal Kosinski (Stanford), and music researcher Brian Monteiro. Our <a href="http://spp.sagepub.com/content/7/6/597">research</a> was published this month.</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>We had more than 100 musical excerpts spanning over 20 genres and subgenres rated on 38 different musical attributes. We then applied a statistical procedure to categorise these musical attributes and discovered that they clustered into three basic categories: “Arousal” (the energy level of the music); “Valence” (the spectrum from sad to happy emotions in the music); and “Depth” (the amount of sophistication and emotional depth in the music). The statistical procedure mapped each song on each these three basic categories. For example, Joni Mitchell’s “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5782PQO5is">Blue</a>” is low on arousal (because of the slow tempo and soft vocals), low on valence (because of the expressed nostalgia and sadness), and high on depth (because of the emotional and sonic complexity expressed through the lyrics and sonic texture).</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><figure class="align-center zoomable"></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> <a href="https://62e528761d0685343e1c-f3d1b99a743ffa4142d9d7f1978d9686.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/files/133076/area14mp/image-20160804-484-1kkihi5.jpg"><img alt="" src="https://62e528761d0685343e1c-f3d1b99a743ffa4142d9d7f1978d9686.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/files/133076/width754/image-20160804-484-1kkihi5.jpg"></a></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> <figcaption></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> <span class="caption">The songs listed represent each of the three musical attribute clusters.</span></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> <span class="attribution"><a class="source" href="http://www.gsb.stanford.edu/insights/can-your-personality-explain-your-itunes-playlist">Tricia Seibold | Stanford Business | http://www.gsb.stanford.edu/insights/can-your-personality-explain-your-itunes-playlist</a></span></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> </figcaption></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"> </figure></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><h2>Arousal, valence, depth</h2></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>Will people start walking around wearing T-shirts that say “I love Depth in music”, or list themselves as fans of positive valence on their Twitter profiles? I doubt it. But it might be useful if people began to use attributes to describe the music that they like (aggressive or soft; happy or nostalgic). People’s music libraries today are incredibly diverse, typically containing music from a variety of genres. My hypothesis is that if people like arousal in one musical genre, they are likely to like it in another.</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>Even though these basic three dimensions probably won’t become a part of culture, recommendation platforms, like Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music, and YouTube should find these dimensions useful when coding and trying to accurately recommend music for their users to listen to. Further, it is also useful for scientists, psychologists, and neuroscientists who are studying the effect of music and want an accurate method to measure it.</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>Our team next sought to see how preferences for these three dimensions were linked to the <a href="https://www.boundless.com/psychology/textbooks/boundless-psychology-textbook/personality-16/trait-perspectives-on-personality-79/the-five-factor-model-311-12846/">Big Five</a>. Personality traits (openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism). Nearly 10,000 people indicated their preferences for 50 musical excerpts and completed a personality measure. People who scored high on “openness to experience” preferred depth in music, while extroverted excitement-seekers preferred high arousal in music. Those who were relatively neurotic preferred negative emotions in music, while those who were self-assured preferred positive emotions in music.</p></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><iframe src="https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/5zLwT/1/" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" oallowfullscreen="oallowfullscreen" msallowfullscreen="msallowfullscreen" width="100%" height="471"></iframe></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><p>So, just as the old Kern and Hammerstein song suggests, “The Song is You”.
