The bigger picture, says Connolly, is how Music Meter fits into overall strategy of using new platforms. The company has always been about “cutting through the noise” and helping people find new music, says Connolly. While there are many other music discovery tools on the market, MTV sees Music Meter as part of its core mission of helping connect artists and fans. Once he entered into a more mainstream conversation, he was placed on the mainstream Music Meter list. Music Meter accounted for which online sources were talking about Bon Iver. For example, indie rock artist Bon Iver showed up on Music Meter’s mainstream list after winning a Grammy for best new artist. Where an artist is being talked about influences the Music Meter list where that artist appears. “We wanted to take a wider view of music and reflect the conversations of music in real-time,” says Shannon Connolly, VP of Digital Music Strategy for MTV Music Group.Įach list is the result of an algorithm based on artist mentions at blogs, online news sites and social media in addition to streaming and download volume.
