So these broad shifts can, as in so many areas of culture, be crudely characterised as a movement away from 'top-down', single voice, broadcasted, edited, authoritarian models towards a more heterogenous, software-based, networked organisation of information, constructed in emergent fashion from a multiplicity of voices. A crude over-simplification but not without merit. Music discovery is now an incredibly rich, complex terrain in which intelligence moves to the edges rather than the centre. This movement could enable a richer, more beneficial model for music discovery, but only if the software and systems driving these discussions is carefully implemented - calibrated with specific knowledge of the subject area - in order to facilitate a richer experience around music.
