I want to test my music genre algorithm in the public dataset to compare with other preexisted algorithms. In case of MIREX, all the data are not available. I found that GTZAN dataset are available in a link(marsyas.info/download/data_sets) But, it is not available to me now.
Do you know how can I get this data? Because I use other feature than MFCC, so I need genre annotation as well as music.
Thanks in advance.
It sounds like you might want the Million Songs Dataset, which has, well, a million songs, with audio features, tags, lyrics and so on, releast by Echonest and Labrosa. Of course, this is presuming that you are working from music metadata and transcriptions.
If you are looking for the raw audio... that's another matter. I don't know if you wish to publish, in which case intellectual property law might be a more significant factor. But for private testing, I suspect that you could just use files from your own music library (e.g. iTunes downloads already have a genre tag to test your algorithm against).
