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.

Abstract: Systems, devices, apparatuses, components, methods, and techniques for generating and playing a selectable content depth media program are provided. Media content items are edited to produce selectable depth media segments which are assembled into selectable depth media programs. A media-playback device is configured to navigate and play the selectable depth media program through interaction by a listening user. The user selects the desired content depth for each media segment.

Abstract: A first device includes one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors. The one or more programs include instructions for receiving, from a second device, audio mix information for a first audio item and receiving, from the second device, an indication that the first audio item is to be mixed with a second audio item distinct from the first audio item. In response to the indication, the one or more programs include instructions for transmitting to the second device an audio stream including the first audio item and the second audio item mixed in accordance with the audio mix information.

Abstract: Systems, devices, apparatuses, components, methods, and techniques for media content playback during travel are provided. An example method of generating a user interface for a media playback device. The method includes the step of displaying a first user interface screen in a first display format. The first display format including graphical representations of a plurality of selectable controls. The method also includes the step of determining that the media playback device is travelling and after determining that the media playback device is travelling, converting the first user interface screen to a second display format. The second display format includes fewer graphical representations of the plurality of selectable controls than the first display format.

Abstract: In general, this disclosure concerns media streaming. Among other things, the present disclosure presents a first media item for streaming from a computer server system to a media device. The first media item has an audio format. Furthermore, the first media item comprises a number of media segments, wherein each one of the number of media segments is identifiable by a media segment identifier. Still further, one or several of the number of media segments is/are associated with a respective second media item corresponding to a respective media segment identifier. The second media item(s) typically has/have a media format other than audio.

Abstract: A method for controlling media presentation is disclosed. In some implementations, the method is performed at a first electronic device having one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors. The first electronic device displays a webpage including a control element, such as a “play” button. The webpage originates from a webpage server. The first electronic device receives a user input, such as a mouse click, selecting the control element. In response to the user input, the first electronic device sends a media control request to a media server. The media control request is configured to cause the media server to control presentation of first media content at a second electronic device associated with the user, wherein the second electronic device is different from the first electronic device, and wherein the media server is different from the webpage server.

Abstract: A system for playing media content items operates to provide smooth transitions between the media content items to continuously support a user's repetitive motion activity. The system can generate crossfade data containing information for transitions between media content items. The mix-in and mix-out points for the transitions are calculated to eliminate one or more portions of media content items that have lower musical energy than a majority portion of the items, and to maintain substantially consistent and/or stable musical energy (e.g., audio power or sound power) throughout the media content items including transitions therebetween.
