Goals

  • compare song features of jazz artists in six different categories (e.g. I can see that the songs by artist x tend to be more uptempo than the average popular jazz song);
  • Analyze the most popular jazz artists’ productivity by viewing their released songs over the years; see the number of jazz songs released over the years;
  • explore jazz songs in a timeline, and compare their selected audio features; listen to a preview of the tracks;
  • explore the temporal context of jazz songs (which tracks were released at this time); discover new jazz tracks from a specific time range.
