Ask HN: Hacker News for musicians?
Hi,
Do you know an hacker news clone devoted to music ?
(there are some subreddits about music and instruments, but nothing is centralized)
Would somebody be interested in running one ?
- omarish 18y agoAbsolutely. Would this be focused on music production or discovery?
- vorador 18y agoI think that it should cover both
- maggie 18y agoIn my experience, blogs covering more the "music discovery" side of things are completely separate from those covering "music production" and such a 'hacker news for music' would have a problem catering to both audiences. In addition, there is some overlap between these two groups (namely, those interested in music production are also interested in music discovery), but music prod. is nearly entirely contained inside music discov. A 'HN Clone' for music discovery would be much more successful than one for music prod. IMHO. But I'd worry that it would just degenerate into a user-based Pitchfork (or any other music review site). How would it be different?
- vorador 18y agoIt would be different in the same way hn is different from reddit. It's the job of the moderators to maintain a good balance.
- bbgm 18y agoWhat would you want the content to look like? Sites like <a href="http://kvraudio.com http://kvraudio.com">KVR</a> do a good job of covering the world of software synthesizers, modular synthesis and production techniques, albeit in a very different format
