Follow the credits

Every record has people behind it.

Each album page lists who's documented on it. Open any name to land on their own page: role categories, connected records, and sometimes a nudge toward someone credited in a different kind of role. Just follow the names.

Browse everyone documented in the graph at /contributors/.

How it works

Every connection carries its evidence.

An edge between two artists means they are documented performing on the same recording or release. The path keeps that proof attached at every hop, with provenance back to the source.

Evidence, not influence

Documented credits only

A documented performance credit means two artists are credited as performing on the same recording or release — nothing about how they got along.

Provenance

Sourced and versioned

Publishable facts derive from CC0 Discogs monthly dumps, carried with snapshot date, source, parser and schema versions, and original role text.

Static-first

Works with no backend

The experience loads a small, versioned static artifact and runs entirely in your browser. No live API is required for the core experience.

What's real here
