Popular Music-Themed Timelines

Google's Music Timeline Shows Music from the 1950s to Today

— January 22, 2014 — Tech
Google has recently launched The Music Timeline, which is designed to be a platform where anyone and everyone is able to immerse themselves in a wide range of music that was popular during the time-specific decades.

If you've ever gone through the tedious process in looking for popular songs in the 1990s and were instead bombarded with a whole list of songs from the 80s or even from the 2000s, Google has now created a new timeline to solve all those music finding problems.

The site is extremely easy to use and looks even better, the interface is a multicolored, visual timeline that shows the most popular genres, ranging from different popularity and individual artists dating back from the 1950s until the present day.

Through analyzing different libraries of Google Play users, Google was able to assemble this list that show the highs and lows of the music world.
Trend Themes
1. Music Timeline Visualization - The Music Timeline demonstrates the potential for creating immersive and visually appealing music timelines.
2. Decade-specific Music Platforms - The creation of decade-specific music platforms like The Music Timeline can solve the problem of finding popular songs from a specific era.
3. Data-driven Music Curation - Analyzing user libraries, as Google did with Google Play, can lead to curated lists that showcase the evolution of music over time.
Industry Implications
1. Music Streaming - Music streaming platforms can leverage visual timelines, like The Music Timeline, to enhance the user experience and enable exploration of music by different decades.
2. Data Analytics - The collection and analysis of user data can lead to disruptive innovations in data analytics, as demonstrated by the creation of music timelines based on Google Play libraries.
3. User Interfaces - Creating visually appealing and user-friendly interfaces, such as the multicolored timeline of The Music Timeline, can drive innovation in user interface design across various industries.
