Hey there,
I’m a livid psychedelic music lover (and a producer), and for almost a year I’ve been working on a platform called Psychill Space. On the website, I have a bunch of interconnected features:
- Blog - on the Psychill Space blog, I’m writing album reviews, monthly release digests and other articles.
- Music Archive - An archive of hundreds of albums from various artists across over 100 genres. Users can help create detailed track profiles by voting on each track’s genres, moods and tags. With each track you profle, you can watch the Genre Map update in realtime - it shows similar and commonly coexisting genres next to each other in a 2D space, and you can preview which albums are closest to which genre. Rate your favorite tracks and albums. Browse the database using advanced filters, or get personalized recommendations via Discovery Mode.
- Community - a place to meet like-minded people. It is meant to be a hybrid between a Facebook or Twitter-like feed, and the classic forums/reddit-like discussion board structure. There’s no ads, and you can easily share music between friends or other people there, regardless of the platform you use for music - all the tracks in database already contain links to bandcamp, spotify, apple music, tidal or other services, so you can open them with one click, without needing to search it separately.
- Events - The website also acts as a directory for events, gatherings and festivals. You can easily find clubs or festivals near you that play your favorite genres of music, you can search lineups and check artists discographies without navigating outside of the site. The events database isn’t fully repleted yet.
The platform is named after psychedelic music, since that’s where the idea came from, but it has plenty of IDM, experimental and other niche genres - and more is always welcome.
