Music futurist Gerd Leohard helped create Sonific, a website which allows you to find music that resembles the music you already love. It's a smart idea, one that's also the premise behind Pandora. (Pandora's algorithms have led me to music I love, but have also generated a lot of false starts.)

Platforms like Sonific and Pandora can serve an excellent purpose, but my real question is: What about music I don't know I like yet? For that, you need a guide, a navigator - a "DJ/mogul."
