H-Level Classification Framework — Recent Updates & Community Feedback
The H0-H5 classification framework continues to evolve as we receive feedback from the AI music community. This thread is dedicated to discussing recent updates to classification criteria, particularly around vocal generation and stem separation. Key points for discussion: - H1 (Human-Led): Traditional productions with minimal AI assistance - H2 (AI-Assisted): Human compositions enhanced with AI tools - H3 (Hybrid): Balanced collaboration between human and AI - H4 (Pure AI): AI-generated with human curation - H5 (Full AI): Fully autonomous AI generation What are your thoughts on the current boundaries between these levels? Are there edge cases that need clarification?

Audio-First Charts: Are We Missing Video's Discovery Value?
With the new audio-first metrics rollout, I'm curious how creators feel about the shift away from video-centric tracking. The emphasis on Spotify, Apple Music, TIDAL, and Suno generation data seems like a positive step for recognizing pure audio creativity. However, I wonder if we're undervaluing the discovery potential of TikTok and YouTube. What are your thoughts?
Genre Classification Granularity — Too Broad or Just Right?
The new genre classifications (AI Hip-Hop/Rap, Lo-Fi/Study Beats, Synthwave/Cyberpunk, R&B/Neo-Soul, Ambient/Generative) are a great start, but I'm wondering if we need more granular subcategories. For example, within AI Hip-Hop, there's a huge difference between doubletime trap and conscious hip-hop. Should the standards account for this, or is the current level of detail sufficient for chart eligibility?
