Abstract
This chapter presents two implemented prototypes that are related with the main topics presented in the book; music discovery and recommendation. The first system, named, Searchsounds, is a music search engine based on text keyword searches, as well as a more like this button, that allows users to discover music by means of audio similarity. Thus, Searchsounds allows users to dig into the Long Tail, by providing music discovery using audio content-based similarity. The second system, named FOAFing the Music, is a music recommender system that focuses on the Long Tail of popularity, promoting unknown artists. The system also provides related information about the recommended artists, using information available on the web gathered from music related RSS feeds.
