This week on the DMT 1-2-1 show an interview with Damien Tardieu, the co-founder and CEO of Paris-based startup Niland (http://www.niland.io).

The company aims to improve music search and recommendations by taking a music-centric approach based on the analysis of thousands of data points in a song that are rendered into an algorithm. The system is then able to identify similar-sounding tracks.

The company’s first API-based product Siilar is out now and is primarily aimed at music libraries, distributors and publishers, but Niland is also working on a broader music recommendation product that will take into account social media and personal user data to refine its recommendations.

I really hope you enjoy the show, have a fantastic week and ’till next time!
