Abstract

Systems and methods for mixing music are disclosed. Audio mix information is received from a plurality of users. Mix rules are determined from the audio mix information from the plurality of users, wherein the mix rules include a first mix rule associated with a first audio item. The first mix rule relates to an overlap of the first audio item with another audio item. The first mix rule is made available to one or more clients. In some implementations, making the first mix rule available to the one or more clients includes transmitting, to the first client, information enabling the first client to playback a transition between the first audio item and the second audio item in accordance with the first mix rule.
