Abstract

Purpose: Music is an artistic expression with many categories in various genres and styles, characterized by its melodic and harmonic compositions. Music genre classification is crucial because genres serve as descriptors commonly used to organize large music collections, especially on the internet and in widely used applications like JOOX and Spotify. The aim of this research is to implement the Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) feature extraction method to generate numerical features from a set of specific music tracks. This collection of information will then be classified using machine learning. Methods: The method used in this study begins with combining the "GTZAN Dataset - Music Genre Classification" with additional data from TikTok and YouTube. The total dataset consists of 1,200 audio files, divided into 12 classes. The MFCC extraction process generates numerical representations of acoustic characteristics, which are then processed using Artificial Neural Networks. Result: The experiments demonstrate that increasing the amount of data is crucial, as it can enhance both variation and accuracy. The average accuracy achieved in this study is 91.42%, while the highest accuracy reaches 92.16%. These findings indicate that this study outperforms previous studies. Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in the integration of dynamic social media data (TikTok and YouTube) to enrich the standard GTZAN dataset, the repetition of the MFCC feature extraction process, and the combination of MFCC with Artificial Neural Networks (ANN).
