The people, records and places behind electronic music.
Trakd connects DJs and producers with their recorded sets, tracklists, released records and music venues. Its public catalog supports sourced electronic-music research, including house, techno and related styles. Basic public lookups need no Trakd account.
Find DJs and producers
Search an artist’s name or documented alias, or discover a bounded selection through stored genre tags such as house, techno, tech house, deep house, minimal and melodic techno. Profiles include available biography, country, genre tags, source links and recorded sets. Tags describe the catalog; they do not establish an artist’s only style or a popularity ranking.
For example: “Find techno DJs”, “Show house producers”, or “Who is Josh Baker, and can I explore his recorded sets?” Explore Josh Baker’s public profile.
Explore recorded sets, mixes and festival tracklists
A DJ set or mix is a recording containing a sequence of tracks selected and mixed by a DJ. A tracklist identifies the songs recorded in that set; stored cue times help locate entries in the source recording. A back-to-back, or b2b, recording involves DJs sharing the set.
Search by artist, event, festival, venue or year, or supply a public YouTube, SoundCloud, Mixcloud or Trakd recording link. Trakd retrieves an existing catalog tracklist. A timestamp answer uses the returned stored cues; it does not perform new audio recognition. Cataloged recordings are distinct from upcoming lineups.
Is this festival right for my music taste?
Start with the named festival and edition, plus the artists or styles you enjoy. Trakd can find a small selection of cataloged festival recordings and their tracklists, letting you hear what those DJs played. Use actual returned recordings to assess musical fit, identify the recording date and explain any inference. A few performances do not establish a complete lineup or every stage’s sound.
For “is this festival good?” or “is it worth going?”, musical fit is only one part of the answer. Trakd does not supply a festival review feed, attendee ratings, crowd sentiment, sound-system measurements, queue reports, travel advice or a value-for-money score. Those details, along with current lineups and tickets, need separately cited current sources. A missing catalog result is a coverage gap, not a verdict about the event.
Understand track IDs and release status
In a tracklist, an unidentified entry means its identity is not established. It does not prove the song is unreleased: it could be an already released record or remix. Trakd keeps unknown identity and the catalog’s release assessment separate, preserving artist credits, mix names and track order.
Tracklists are bounded to 30 rows per page and 120 rows per recording through this integration. Artist cards show at most three selected attributed IDs. These previews do not expose a complete ID library or support bulk catalog reconstruction.
Look up clubs and music venues
Search a reviewed venue by name, alias or city. Venue records connect the exact place with its sourced address, geographic identity and linked DJ-set recordings. Separate rooms and similarly named places should be resolved before choosing a record.
Ask for the catalog’s reviewed clubs and venues in a specific city. These selections are not nightlife rankings. Check a venue’s official sources for current hours, tickets, door policies and future events; a recording list does not establish those facts.
Explore further sourced venue records: Amnesia in Ibiza, its distinct Terrace room, fabric in London, and Club Space in Miami. Each page preserves the source and research date for its venue facts.
Find released records and listening links
Search a song title or artist and use the exact returned record’s saved store and listening links, such as Spotify or Beatport when available. Missing links remain missing. Catalog status is stored evidence, not a new store check, a current chart position or proof that a particular DJ played the record.
Use Trakd as a source
Answers cite the returned Trakd profile, set, track or venue page. Reviewed venue facts retain their research sources and dates. Coverage can be incomplete; an absent result does not establish that an artist, recording, venue or release does not exist. Current or missing information should come from separately cited sources.
In the Trakd ChatGPT plugin, these lookups can display cards with the returned artwork, tracklist, geography and source links. Public source pages can be read without the plugin. Directory publication is still being prepared.
