I want to know too – let us know if you figure out what the epic 17-minute song is!

Definitely an interesting set of visualizations, I like anything that tries to get specific with genres because it’s always fun to see what new and exciting made-up categories make the list. I think “urban” (R&B? maybe…) is my favorite dubious category, followed by whatever the difference between alternative dance and indie electronic might be. Seeing as there is no experimental electronic category, excepting the catch-all Avant Garde, I think those tracks may go towards the indie electronic category, but I’m not sure. I’m also very curious to know what top 100 song clocked in at 17 minutes long; looks like I’ve got a list to read.

I spend a lot of time looking at boring graphs made by scientists, so it’s fun to look at pretty! colourful! visualizations made by graphic artists.

What a coincidence. I love data visualizations, too!
