Spanxzilla: Testing the Music Genome Project.

For those of you who don't listen to Pandora, you're missing out. It's a free-ish online radio station that you can set preferences on. It's all run out of Flash, and selects songs based off the songs that you vote. Each song has probably 50 things listed about each so that they create a sort of music zone. So I created Spanxzilla to test the very edges of the Project and how strangely music can be attached to each other.

The opening one is a real winner going from mellow, jazzy "I'm Beginning to See the Light" (Danny Willams) ----> "5:59" (Hototogisu) which is something like guitars feeding back in an ominous sound wave.

Here a list of all the genes in the project.

Interesting observation, is that noise orchestrations like Hair Police often goes into or comes out jazz orchestrations. Today, Dr. John came on which I sort of see because of the connection of near avant garde but he still has that bluesy sound.
