Eventually I'm going to disable any posts to P&R unless you have a corresponding DJ tagged to it in the database, so I want every and any EDM artist in there. First I need to hit a reasonable number of DJs and give people enough time to figure out what it's about

Re: [ms] DJ Database

i had a cracked copy of reason 4 years ago, can i add myself?

this is pretty cool though, really. just getting into it now. will hopefully save time sorting through the trash in P&Rs

Re: [ms] DJ Database

If you do a search on an artist that doesn't exist, it'll give you a link to submit a new one. I'll try to add a link somewhere that's plainly visible in the future

Also, I don't want this to only be Disc Jockeys. Anybody who creates EDM in any fashion!



You can also click this link to submit a new artist:

Re: [ms] DJ Database

Obviously, there is a big big missing name, from whom I'm very interested into make their data on the database. The only problem, is that they are not DJs. But they are the true and only fathers of electronic music for the last half of century. I mean Tangerine Dream. And after they, also Kraftwerk. Non of them are DJs, but if you have on the list Eluvium, you need to put them on it also.

You should see a "Submit New Artist" link at the bottom of the page now, or enter "Darey" in the search and the follow the nstructions

"No results found for darey. Click here to submit them!"

Re: [ms] DJ Database

This looks very promising. I was thinking about Matt Darey, and to make his entry on this database, because he is my friend, but I don't know how to submit it. In the page there is no button or way to submit it, so, what is the next step?

You can only tag a thread or edit a thread's tags if you are the thread creator, or if I've set you as a DJDB Admin in the past to help me out.

Re: [ms] DJ Database

I just finished creating functionality that lets you tag an existing thread, and to tag multiple DJs to a thread.

how do you do that?
i went back to tag a thread i started, but dont see a tag box? what am I missing?

Re: [ms] DJ Database

I think icons could be created same size by script, don't tell me there are 250 records to modify now . Sources are so different, it's tough to stay consistent.

Re: [ms] DJ Database

dude I LOVE The little icons next to the artist name that highlight links to his MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, etc.

The images under the ms banners are great too, any way we can make them uniform in size? If it's not easy (or possible) to get evenly sized images up there, perhaps another suggestion would be that on every page load, just have a single random artist image pop up in the left of that box, follwed by image links to myspace, facebook, twitter etc. on the right and the last 3 or 4 latest threads from P&R forum that were tagged for the artist, show up under the little images
