%Introduction, leading to a clearly defined research question
\chapter{Introduction}
\section{Introduction}
-Music is a leading type of data distributed on the internet. Regular music
-distribution is almost entirely digital and services like Spotify and YouTube
-allow one to listen to almost any song within a few clicks. Moreover, there are
-myriads of websites offering lyrics of songs.
-
-\todo{explain relevancy, (preprocessing for lyric alignment)}
+The \gls{IFPI} stated that about $43\%$ of music revenue rises from digital
+distribution. The overtake on physical formats took place somewhere in 2015 and
+since twenty years the music industry has seen significant
+growth~\footnote{\url{http://www.ifpi.org/facts-and-stats.php}}.
+
+A lot of this musical distribution goes via non-official channels such as
+YouTube~\footnote{\url{https://youtube.com}} in which fans of the musical group
+accompany the music with synchronized lyrics so that users can sing or read
+along. Because of this interest it is very useful to device automatic
+techniques for segmenting instrumental and vocal parts of a song and
+apply forced alignment or even lyrics recognition on the audio file.
+
+
+%A majority of the music is not only instrumental but also contains vocal
+%segments.

+%Literature overview / related work
+\section{Related work}
+The field of applying standard speech processing techniques on music started in
+the late 90s~\cite{saunders_real-time_1996,scheirer_construction_1997} and it
+was found that music has different discriminating features compared to normal
+speech.
+
+Berenzweig and Ellis expanded on the aforementioned research by trying to
+separate singing from instrumental music\cite{berenzweig_locating_2001}.

-Singing/non-singing detection has been fairecent topic of interest in the

-researched singing voice detection in stead of the more founded topic of

%Methodology
some parts are not annotated with lyrics because it was too difficult to hear
what was being sung.
+\section{Methods}
+\todo{To remove in final thesis}
+The initial planning is still up to date. About one and a half album has been
+annotated and a framework for setting up experiments has been created.
+Moreover, the first exploratory experiments are already been executed and
+promising. In April the experimental dataset will be expanded and I will try to
+mimic some of the experiments done in the literature to see whether it performs
+similar on Death Metal
