COMPANY

Since 2000, we have been hard at work on the Music Genome Project to help you connect with the music you love. Our team of musician-analysts has been listening to music, one song at a time, studying and collecting literally hundreds of musical details on every track – melody, harmony, instrumentation, rhythm, vocals, lyrics… and more! We continue this work every day to keep up with the incredible flow of great new music coming from studios, stadiums and garages around the country.
