This is a great problem to attempt to solve, for a few reasons. First, there's heaps of audio content out there with friendly licensing already. Second, there's huge amounts of metadata and related text available. Third, there's so many different angles of analysis to tie things together with. Fourth, everyone's got at least a few devices that can access some or all of that content.

I share your belief that someone can do better than the current offerings in this area.

However, right now your site is not giving me a lot of useful response. I am seeing no results for some pretty popular instruments (I searched 'hang' and 'sitar' and neither had any results). I am seeing very little of a lot of genres out there. And when I do get results, they are not presented in an easily reviewed manner (eg. with Google-style text snippets, many results visible per page in an uncluttered, single-direction-scannable results list).

Here's some random ideas: - consider search by artist, individual within an artist group, instrument, instrument genre, time, event, venue, genre, review text, reviewer rating or location or age or something - consider limit by 'has upcoming events near me' (good monetization path) - timeline of genres - timeline of releases by an artist - links to wikipedia background - metadata from same (+wikidata, etc.)

Good luck developing this further, I think there's a lot of great work to be done.
