[OC] Interaktive Visualisierung des katalanischen Musik-Ökosystems mithilfe von Spotify-Daten. Es entsteht eine Galaxie von Künstlern, in der Sie ihre Musik entdecken und hören können.

Source: Data from Viasona.cat (Catalan music database) and the Spotify API.

Tools: AngularJS

Description:

I built this experimental project to visualize the structure of the music scene in the Catalan language.

How it works: Each dot is an artist. The connections represent shared fanbases (based on Spotify’s „Fans also like“ algorithm).
The Feature: It’s fully interactive. You can click on any node to listen to previews, view stats, and discover similar bands you might not know.

The Clusters: The algorithm groups artists based on listener affinity, naturally creating „musical neighborhoods“ like Urban, Festive Pop-Rock, Folk, and Indie.
(Note: Some very small artists don’t appear because Spotify doesn’t provide „fans also like“ data for them yet).
