Sources we watch

Our live catalogue. Audius is an open music network where every track carries a platform-set AI-attribution flag — so we can surface human uploads directly and stream them in-app.

Netlabel releases, live concert tapes and community audio — permanent, dated item records that make provenance easy to trace. Streamed in-app.

Creative Commons remix community. Every upload comes from a named member, usually with stems and source credits attached. Streamed in-app.

Thousands of community-indexed stations via Radio Browser. Radio is human programming by definition — a person picks the records. Plays in the same player.

Artist- and label-run store pages with liner notes, credits and dated releases — the strongest provenance on the open web. We read both the search index and Bandcamp's own discover shelves, so new releases surface without anyone searching for them. Previews stream in-app; the buy page is one click away.

Broad reach, thin metadata. We lean on label pages and live history instead.

Read as a curated channel allowlist, not an open search — currently the S!X - Music trip-hop label. Uploads carry artist and label credits, and play in-app through the embedded player.

Where demos, live takes and unreleased edits land first. We read it four ways — search, long-form DJ sets, live sessions and SoundCloud's own trending charts. There is no platform AI flag, so we screen uploads for generative-audio markers before they reach the feed. Streamed in-app.

Live broadcasts with count-ins, chatter and mistakes intact.

Physical pressings with printed personnel; slow but near-conclusive.
