Music Tourist Board

just in time for the Music Tourist Board documentary of Uniqulture, The Guardian have created a DIY resource for pro active new music purveyors - basically a map of UK next music industry.

with blog writers being the ones that will suss out the artists playing in venues under 500 capacity, and therefore on the spot when a fan base is being won, they are natural taste makers.

some of the newer wave of music, creatives, performers, industry and media will create the Uniqulture project between new year’s day and new year’s eve 2012. see the winter edition of Monthly Planet zine in December, for fuller details. But in the mean time, check out a tipping-captain’s blog for your future star dates.

Shamelessly ripping off this map here, we thought we’d try to set up a collaborative map to show what areas of the UK people are writing music blogs about.

So, if you’re writing about your local music scene, let us know by adding yourself to this map. To do so, sign in to Google, click on this link and click ‘edit’ to add your placemark with a description of, and link to, your blog.
