SOURCE INTAKE
External Jamaican music sites are useful discovery tools. This board turns those observations into reviewable atlas work: citations, candidate records, contextual studio notes, media links and relationship gaps.
Observed source feature: Large public artist directory and artist search surface
Atlas fit: Compare names, aliases, active years, roles and missing public records against the atlas entity index.
Next build step: Build a reviewed import queue that stores source URL, proposed canonical name, aliases and confidence before publishing.
Observed source feature: Studio-focused navigation and historical learning surfaces
Atlas fit: Use studios as context inside stories, credits, map notes and relationship copy without creating a standalone studio directory.
Next build step: Mention studio presence where it explains a recording, producer network, neighbourhood or era; link only when there is a verified atlas record.
Observed source feature: Top riddims and music-library pathways
Atlas fit: Model riddims as reusable musical systems connected to tracks, producers, labels, dances and sound-system play.
Next build step: Collect riddim candidates, then attach official audio/video references and version relationships.
Observed source feature: Recently added content stream
Atlas fit: Create an editor watchlist for new artists, releases and stories that might need atlas records or media links.
Next build step: Track source URLs and review status without importing text until an editor verifies each record.
Observed source feature: Live radio and listen surfaces
Atlas fit: Capture broadcast/show references as media sources and use them to discover contemporary scenes and selectors.
Next build step: Add rights-aware external links first; only embed streams when permissions and source terms allow it.
