An apparatus is configured to determine one or more acoustic features of an audio track, determine dominance of an audible characteristic in the audio track based at least partly on said one or more acoustic features and store metadata for the audio track indicating said dominance of the audible characteristic. The apparatus may select one or more audio tracks from a catalogue, or store, having a dominance of the audible characteristic within a range of values based on the dominance of the audible characteristic of the audio track and, optionally, user preferences. Information may be output identifying the one or more selected tracks. The audible characteristic may be a contributing musical instrument or a genre. The determined dominance may include one or more of overall dominance for the entire audio track, varying dominance information and information regarding the dominance of an instrument relative to other instruments in the audio track. |
