Last.fm "Open Mind Index"/Genre Breakdown
 
Cool little thing I found on someone's Last.fm page:

Last FM Open Mind Index

There's a cool pie chart too. (I like pictures)

For me:


Quote:

Open Mind Index: 60

(60 - 79: a substandard of bandwidth of tags)

I don't have enough plays, since I've only been using it for a month.

Whoa, that pop chunk is massive. I should've been able to predict that...

What's your overall? Starving is closeminded.

This is pretty cool, but kind of biased as it doesn't do too well for people who are open minded within a genre - it works more on a first tier basis (i.e. rock, jazz, hip-hop, classical). That first tier problem isn't so bad with metal since the subgenres are clearly defined and people are only too happy to tag a band by its subgenre... but it's a problem with some types of rock since most people would tag QOTSA as rock rather than stoner rock, or RHCP as rock rather than funk rock etc. So my 17.29% in rock should be split up more IMO.

Also, last.fm doesn't record a lot of the jazz/classical I listen to, since it's in flac format, so the OMI would be higher still.

Haha there's a lot of metal, but there's a lot of other stuff too so I ended up getting 120 which is meant to be an pretty open-minded score. I imagine that if half of my jazz wasn't in flac format, that would be fairly high on the charts too.:p:

I'm imagining that they are allowed to put more than one tag on each band, and Indie tends to get thrown around a lot, my highest is Indie by quite a lot over folk.

But yes, what the hell is Lo-Fi, I apparently listen to a fair bit of it?

Why follow a crowd? Mistagged is a PC error TBH. Do you think I need to add some new genres?
