I’d say it’s astonishing no one has done it before, but it’s not: The music business has a long tradition of resisting good ideas. So how did the Turntable.fm guys finally get the industry on board? They haven’t. The start-up doesn’t have deals in place with any labels or publishers. [Record-scratch sound here.] This doesn’t mean that Turntable.fm is illegal. Here’s how Turntable got started, how it works, and why it might be able to stick around.
The backstory: Turntable started as Stickybits, which did something hard to explain involving barcodes and geotagging, and seemed more like an art project than a business.

Music Genome Project. The Music Genome Project was first conceived by Will Glaser and Tim Westergren in late 1999. In January 2000, they joined forces with Jon Kraft to found Savage Beast Technologies to bring their idea to market.[1] The Music Genome Project is an effort to "capture the essence of music at the most fundamental level" using almost 400 attributes to describe songs and a complex mathematical algorithm to organize them. The Music Genome Project is currently made up of 5 sub-genomes: Pop/Rock, Hip-Hop/Electronica, Jazz, World Music, and Classical. Under the direction of Nolan Gasser and a team of musicological experts, the initial attributes were later refined and extended.
A given song is represented by a vector containing values for approximately 400 "genes" (analogous to trait-determining genes for organisms in the field of genetics).
