Dataset Card for HTMOneShotLoopClassification
Dataset Summary
HTMOneShotLoopClassification is a dataset of 5,561 electronic music samples (one-shots and loops) from house, tech house, and minimal techno genres. Each sample is labeled with one of 8 stem categories and includes 55 extracted audio features for machine learning applications.
Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
- Audio Classification: Multi-class classification into 8 stem categories
- Baseline Performance: 85.41% accuracy using SVM with RBF kernel
Languages
- Audio samples (no spoken language)
- Metadata in English
Dataset Structure
Data Instances
Each instance contains:
- Filename: Original audio file name
- Stem Label: One of 8 categories (kick, snare, hihat, bass, synth, vocal, percussion, fx)
- Category: Sample type (one-shots or loops)
- 55 Audio Features: Extracted using librosa
Data Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| filename | string | Original audio filename |
| stem | categorical | Target label (8 categories) |
| category | categorical | one-shots or loops |
| duration | float | Audio duration in seconds |
| sample_rate | integer | Sample rate (typically 44100 Hz) |
| rms | float | Root mean square energy |
| zcr | float | Zero crossing rate |
| spectral_centroid | float | Spectral centroid in Hz |
| ... | ... | (See metadata_schema.json for all 55 features) |
Data Splits
Recommended splits:
- Train: 80% (4,450 samples)
- Validation: 10% (556 samples)
- Test: 10% (556 samples)
Dataset Creation
Curation Rationale
The dataset was created to address the lack of curated electronic music sample datasets with:
- High-quality professional samples
- Consistent feature extraction
- Genre-specific focus (house/tech house/minimal techno)
- Both one-shots and loops
Source Data
- Professional electronic music sample packs
- Curated from house, tech house, and minimal techno collections
- Quality-controlled and deduplicated
Annotations
- Annotation process: Automatic categorization based on folder name patterns, with manual review for ambiguous cases
- Annotators: Domain experts
- Annotation guidelines: Based on standard electronic music production categories
Considerations for Using the Data
Social Impact
This dataset enables research in:
- Automated music production tools
- Audio classification systems
- Electronic music analysis
Discussion of Biases
- Genre Bias: Focused on house, tech house, and minimal techno (not all electronic music)
- Class Balance: Good balance achieved (FX: 561, all categories within 80-130% of average)
- Key Coverage: Not all categories have musical key information (only bass and synth have 100% coverage)
Other Known Limitations
- Dataset size: 5,561 samples (moderate size)
- Limited to specific sub-genres of electronic music
- Some categories have low key coverage (important for harmonic mixing applications)
