[relaxing]

I’m not sure if you misunderstand genre, or the way humans relate to music, or both? Culture is not genre. I don’t know anyone who listens to only the current year’s output from a single genre.

I haven’t done the analysis, but consider someone who listens to pop radio: if one new song per week makes it into heavy rotation I’d say that sounds like the right ballpark.

Personally I’d be ecstatic if there were 50 worthwhile new songs to listen to each year.

I understand synthetic data. I question whether anyone will accept the results.
