Six ways to explore the data

Built for people who take music seriously

The DJ Diaries Data Hub started as a React prototype sitting inside our main site. We pulled it out and rebuilt it as six standalone tools — shareable, embeddable, and actually fast.

Every data point is sourced from genre histories, chart archives, festival capacity data, and streaming numbers. Nothing made up, everything arguable.

The best debates about music are about exactly this stuff. These tools give you something to point at.
