HN discussionHas anyone made something like this for jazz, classical, or hip-hop? The closest I know of are: - https://www.music-map.com/ - https://everynoise.com/ - https://chartmetric.com/ - https://musicroamer.com/ - http://davidmckinney.com/app But they're all kind of generic, I would love to see something more genre-specific with additional historic context and personality.
