We’ve just launched the Oxford Band Map! Feel free to use this thread to talk about the map, suggest bands or improvements, argue about whether Beanie Tapes is a clique, etc. This is only the beginning.
beautiful. so uhhh who’s had the most bands???
is Beanie Tapes a clique (o_O) i mean, is the ox music scene cliquey? i have no idea tbh. i’d love to hear what other people think about this tho. i guess i kinda always thought that
(1) these things were supposed to be a bit cliquey
(2) as cliques go, ox music cliques - if they r cliques - are not that hard to join? right?
but maybe i would say those things because i myself am part of the clique. and so i am blinded by my mature self-awareness.
oh! i noticed a solitary dot on the map called UNTITLED (just above MSRY when i view on my phone) that i’m guessing is not a band. if nitpicking is your thing.
So many names on there I haven’t thought about for ages: Xmas Lights… Kill Murray… ahh memories.
Could it have a search function? That would be useful.
I would also like to see a search function, but only so I can see if Joey Herzfeld and other Shifty Disco acts I half remember are on there…
Yes! I think a search function would be great. I just need to find time to make it happen. @silke has been busy entering all the new bands that people have submitted over the last few days (a LOT) and once we’ve caught up with that I might try to get a simple search working.
