The nine Summary Statistics are visualized using histograms (1). The user queries iBEATS by adjusting the numeric thresholds, browsing a two-level hierarchy of Genre/Style and Geography terms (2), and/or direct input to the Artist Name field (3). Filtering (4) reveals the number of candidate songs satisfying the query, which may then be further examined (5) and an audio sample previewed (6). The candidate playlist may then be exported (7) for subsequent use by a streaming music service (e.g., Spotify).
