How sound is passed down over generations (pudding.cool)
“To build this project, we used the dataset of hundreds of thousands of songs on Genius.com accessible through their API, over 200,000 of which were “connected” in some way by sample, interpolation, cover, or remix. We used this dataset to identify promising examples and then confirmed or revised the relationships in those examples based on cross-checking with other sources, including WhoSampled.com, Spotify, and news media and academic scholarship.” (Everything is a remix.)
