What online listings/databases/etc. exist that have information about trance artists, groups and labels? I mean information like names, birth dates, place of birth, country, music genres, biography, etc.

I, myself, only know of I:Vibes (ivibes.nu) and The DJ List (www.thedjlist.com), both of which are not very comprehensive. Anywhere else?

Thanks!

P.S. I'm not looking for any specific information; I just want to know what ones exist.

www.discogs.com (discograhy database)

Yepp, I always use that when I need some info.

That's definitely not a bad one for information. I ask because I wondered if it was worrth us, UKTA, setting up a trance information database (later expainding to include all electronic music), so I want to see what's out there, and whether they are good enough, or whether we could do better. (Yes, it would be a big project - a challenge! )

www.discogs.com is definitely not bad, but not as comprehensive and "nice" as the database I have in mind. Anyone have any feelings on this idea?

I can explain my ideas behind it in more detail at a later stage - I'm just interested to know what people think about the broad idea in general.

sounds like a quality idea that mate, but would be a lot of work to make sure it was updated frequently...but sure everyone on the board would help you with research etc

Thanks. I'm sure it'll create quite a bit of traffic for the site and forum.

I'll create a poll soon (if I can - don't know if just anyone can) to see what everyone thinks.
