# Dataset Card for MTG Jamendo Dataset

## Dataset Description
- **Repository:** [MTG Jamendo dataset repository](https://github.com/MTG/mtg-jamendo-dataset)

### Dataset Summary

MTG-Jamendo Dataset, a new open dataset for music auto-tagging. It is built using music available at Jamendo under Creative Commons licenses and tags provided by content uploaders. The dataset contains over 55,000 full audio tracks with 195 tags from genre, instrument, and mood/theme categories. We provide elaborated data splits for researchers and report the performance of a simple baseline approach on five different sets of tags: genre, instrument, mood/theme, top-50, and overall.
