Exploring new music on mainstream music services can be a tedious task. Their recommendation system might be inaccurate in their results, and many services require specific searches on songs. We use an already existing concept and create a digital solution of it, constructing it with focus on exploring new music with the help of music tags. In our research of this project we conduct two user studies, one in the lab and one in the field. We achieve useful information regarding dMuse as a tool for music exploration. One disadvantage of our studies has proven to be the limitations of our dataset, which only contains one million songs, all from 2010 and prior. However, this dataset is able to match with Spotify, allowing for both online and offline usage of the application. In the light of the obsolete dataset, our test participants find great value in discovering and rediscovering music.
