  • genres.json

List of each possible genre in the dataset. Handwritten and used by categorize.py for manual genre entry.

  • meta.json

The main catalogue of metadata associated with each WAV file. Currently includes genre and artist(s) info, in addition to file paths of compressed/WAV versions of the audio data.

  • wav

Directory of uncompressed audio data files. Automatically populated by decompress.py

Utility Tools
