“All the music in the world”

MuGlobe
“Explore World Music on an Interactive Globe”

Site description:

Discover music by place. Explore genres, artists and musical traditions on MuGlobe’s interactive world map, listen to recordings and read their stories.

From the site's creator, Ed Brakus:

You move around the globe and wherever you land it creates a virtual radio station for that place and streams local music. It uses a map of musical genres and musical regions. Click on the (i) info buttons to see detailed wiki articles about the area’s music, the genres, history, and how the music evolved. It also has playlist support.

It’s free and has no ads.

I have been listening to world music since I was an 11 year old boy flipping through the TV stations and one day landed on a Tito Puente timbale solo. I never looked back and always wondered why more people don’t know about and listen to music from around the world.

So this has been a labor of love for me.

Thanks for reaching out Ed!

😎 I like it!

• Early Web Links

  Before the internet went corporate, it was weird, wonderful, and deeply personal. People built websites just because they had something to share. This directory is full of sites that bring back that feeling.

• The Outer Web
  “An index of authentic and informative web content”

  It's just a name we came up with to describe what's also referred to as the indieweb, blogosphere, small web, personal web, slow web and old web. Some of these terms don't cover everything we're interested in, others are closely associated with a specific entity and we don't want to step on any toes.
