Music Genres, as a popular meta-data of music, are very useful to organize, explore or search music datasets. Soft music genres are weighted multiple-genre annotations to songs. In this initial work, we propose horizontally stacked bar charts to represent a music dataset annotated by these soft music genres. For this purpose, we take an example of a toy dataset consisting of songs labelled with help of three music genres; Blues, Jazz and Country. We demonstrate how such a stacked bar chart can be used as a slider for user-input in an interface. We implement this by embedding this genre bar in a streaming application prototype and show its utility in choosing playlists. We finally conclude by proposing further work and future explorations on our proposed preliminary research.

音乐流派酒吧

音乐流派作为一种流行的音乐元数据，对于组织，探索或搜索音乐数据集非常有用。轻音乐流派是歌曲的加权多流派注解。在这项初步工作中，我们提出了水平堆叠的条形图，以表示由这些柔和的音乐流派注释的音乐数据集。为此，我们以一个玩具数据集为例，该数据集由在三种音乐类型的帮助下标记的歌曲组成。布鲁斯，爵士和乡村。我们演示了如何将这种堆叠的条形图用作界面中用户输入的滑块。我们通过将此流派栏嵌入流应用程序原型中来实现此目的，并展示其在选择播放列表中的效用。最后，我们对建议的初步研究提出了进一步的工作和未来的探索。
