Every artist starts somewhere.
The map plots each artist by the city their journey began in — not where they live now. Every marker opens a profile with their story, their origin city and their own channels.
One marker per artist, placed on their origin city

How it works
Discover. Connect. Follow.
Three layers, one path — from a marker on a map to the artist behind the music.
- 01Discover
The map is the front door
Start from a place rather than a search box. Every marker is an artist and the city their sound came out of.
- 02Connect
The profile is the identity
A real page rather than a database row — the story, the records, the channels, and where they came from.
- 03Follow
The channels are the next step
Every profile links straight to the artist’s own platforms — verified where we can confirm the handle, never guessed.
The directory by country
Artists around the world
Where the directory runs deepest today — and, by their absence, where it still has the most room to grow.
