Various method and system embodiments of the present invention are directed to computational estimation of a tempo for a digitally encoded musical selection. In certain embodiments of the present invention, described below, a short portion of a musical selection is analyzed to determine the tempo of the musical selection. The digitally encoded musical selection sample is computationally transformed to produce a power spectrum corresponding to the sample, in turn transformed to produce a two-dimensional strength-of-onset matrix (618). The two-dimensional strength-of-onset matrix is then transformed (806) into a set of strength-of-onset/time functions (716) for each of a corresponding set of frequency bands (704-707). The strength-of-onset/time functions are then analyzed to find a most reliable onset interval (808, 8100) that is transformed into an estimated tempo returned by the analysis (812).
