Abstract
In this talk I will describe the developments in music discovery technologies over the last 20 years. This
journey will depart from the question of how music can be algorithmically modeled for content-based
search and recommendation. Then I will detail how additional data sources representing different types
of user interactions have gained importance for these tasks. Ultimately, we will arrive at a discussion
of what the objectives of recommender systems are and—most importantly—could and should be in a
world where music is virtually freely available everywhere and at all times. This will bring us to the
open question of fairness in music recommendation and how future technology could contribute to this.
