CLUSTER VINYL-RECORD-MUSIC · 21 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2022-02-23
Vinyl record cataloging apps
This cluster comprises web and mobile apps centered on cataloging, organizing, and playing vinyl records and retro music experiences, with some extending to mixtapes, gramophone simulations, and label browsing. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from — only four dated entries exist before the index start, all predating or near it, while five members have no source date. Traction leaders by activity signal are vinilart-principal, groove, and birthday-retrocassette, each with zero stars, indicating low observable engagement.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
