Abstract

Creating an ecosystem that will tie together the content, technologies and tools in the field of digital music and audio is possible if all the entities of the ecosystem share the same vocabulary and high quality metadata. Creation of such metadata will allow the creative industries to retrieve and reuse the content of Creative Commons audio in innovative new ways. In this paper we present a highly automated method capable of exploiting already existing API (Application Programming Interface) descriptions about audio content and turning it into a knowledge base that can be used as a building block for ontologies describing audio related entities and services.
