Crowdsourcing for music: Survey and taxonomy

Recent behavioral and cultural changes driven by the paradigm of mass collaboration highlighted the phenomenon of crowdsourcing as an innovative and promising production model, with positive effects in several business areas. In the field of music, the so called wave of crowds has fostered creative processes where people from anywhere in the world with Internet access can collaborate in different ways in musical productions, even not being practitioners. The present work is a study of crowd computing applications in the context of music, with an eye towards the crowdsourcing phenomena. We investigate forms of collaboration involving crowds and the available platforms. We also discuss the challenges coupled to this domain and propose a research agenda.
