kinda cool site I stumbled across a while back that I just thought of again. Just enter in an artist and hit enter and it will show a neat interactive chart showing their relationships with other artists (in terms of similar sounding artists). Not entirely accurate from what I've seen in some instances, but pretty cool, nonetheless. From what the Help text says, "the halo (circle) surrounding an artist's name represents how popular he is...The larger the halo is, the more popular the artist is or the more representative he is of a musical style". Also not entirely accurate on that either, but still worth looking at.

That thing is freakin cool.

Yeah it does rock. It had Autechre at the center of the electronic universe. Radiohead was a big one too.

Finally found a band it doesnt know, Shockwave!

Damn good band if I might add, few of the members are straight out of my area too.

Cool, but no:

Secret Machines
Ralph Covert
Bad Examples

so far. Guess it can't have everyone

Here's a similar site, but with a narrower focus. This site shows the derivation and relationships among different kinds of electronic music, and provides a few audio clips for each genre and subgenre:

Thank you and damn you. That is awesome, but I spent the last hour and a half fucking around with it. Far too cool for me. (Actually, at some point, I am going to hit that hard with a P2p app open and get a real sense of what's out there.)
