Every Noise at Once

Every Noise at Once (everynoise.com) is an ongoing attempt at an algorithmically-generated, readability-adjusted scatter-plot of the musical genre-space, based on data tracked and analyzed for 5,987 genre-shaped distinctions by Spotify as of 2022-11-25. The calibration is fuzzy, but in general down is more organic, up is more mechanical and electric; left is denser and more atmospheric, right is spikier and bouncier.
