We don't know about you, but we feel there is a lack of knowledge about local music scenes in today's society. Can you think of one place that sticks out in your mind that has a library containing the artists and resources in your hometown? Neither can we. Enter the Local Sounds Wiki, a comprehensive collection of independent music knowledge.
As odd as it sounds, it already is! A wiki s a type of computer software that allows users to easily create, edit and link web pages. There's a good chance you're already familiar with one of the best known wikis on the web, Wikipedia.
Besides being the sound vinyl makes when a DJ is scratching (wiki, wiki... ok bad joke), a wiki can be very useful in allowing music fans, bands, club owners, labels, studios or anyone contribute to a central database of resources for any particular music scene.
Since the wiki model lets anyone edit and contribute to its content, you as a reader can go in and add what you know about your local music scene. Or if you see something that someone didn't get quite right, go ahead and fix it for them. We're sure they and everyone else will be very grateful you did.
