Skenai v1.7.0 : everything the scene knows about itself

The night, down to the venue

An event page now says everything Resident Advisor knows: its genres as the promoter ticked them, the players they attached, set times when published, the announcement date. And the whole venue: address, capacity, phone, website, a map link, its blurb, its events this year and its followers.

The organisation, since its first night

An organisation page says since when it runs, how many nights it gave each year, all its venues with their capacity, its banner and socials. A club that programmes its own nights is marked venue and organisation, as Resident Advisor itself says.

The artist page, with its Hype

An artist page gains the Resident Advisor biography, aliases, first known date, dates per year and per country, and the articles and podcasts RA published about them. And a Hype score out of 100, as percentiles among the artists on the map: follower growth over seven days, upcoming dates, plays, wider audience, followers. On the map, disc size can follow Hype instead of followers, from the filters.

The label, with its history

A label page carries its founding year, place, parent label, the size of its Discogs catalogue, its public links (Bandcamp, SoundCloud, socials), the Resident Advisor reviews of its releases with their covers, and its Wikipedia article. Organisations and labels also list their Mixcloud sets.

Is this you?

An artist, or their agent, can claim their page: they choose the contact and link shown, get a code to place in their SoundCloud bio, and the nightly pass verifies it. The page then says who is speaking. A weekly radar goes out on Mondays (rising artists, nights announced, newcomers), and a read-only MCP server opens the scene to AI assistants, with the proof in every answer.
