Formelen for en slager

Forskere fra universitetet i Bristol har funnet formelen for en hitlåt:

"Score = (w1 x f1) + (w2 x f2) + (w3 x f3) + (w4 x f4), etc [...]


The “w”s are “weights,” or musical features like tempo, time signature, song duration, loudness and how energetic it is. By using a machine-learning algorithm, the team could mine official U.K. top-40 singles charts over the past 50 years to see how important these 23 features are to producing a hit song."
