While current systems produce high-quality results on this task, the reported experiments are usually limited to popular music. A Long-Term Recurrent Convolutional Network (LRCN) was adapted to detect vocals in a new dataset of electronic music to evaluate its performance in a different music genre and compare its results against those in other state-of-the-art experiments in pop music to prove its effectiveness across a different genre. Experiments on two datasets studied the impacts of different audio features and block size on LRCN temporal relationship learning, and the benefits of preprocessing on performance, and the results generate a benchmark to evaluate electronic music and its intricacies.
