'Project X' is the work-under-progress title of the new site coming soon. The site will replace all our previous sites (autechre.nu, aphextwin.nu and plaid.cjb.net), but will also cover a lot of other artists, like: bola, jega, boc, the black dog, passarani, squarepusher, brothomstates, alder&elius, ovuca, bogdan, etc etc...
It will hopefully turn out to be THE community for electronic music. There are lots of reasons/benefits for doing this lot, here are some:
- one single url - cheaper for me - easier to update the site with news - be able to implement solutions for one single site - personally im interested in VARIOUS artists and i want to cover them all
ALL contents from our previous sites will be merged into the 'Project X'... sorry for the lame project title....but whatever... :-)
Ask your Project X related questions here so we could use this thread as a resource for newcomers as well. I will delete off-topic messages found in this topic.

in the end we'll have a complete discography covering 25-30 artists.

I don't think you should be affraid of charging a nominal/ fair subscription/fee. This is a fun site, it's a bit unfair that you should take the whole financial burden. I don't know how many members there are but if the cost was shared I'm sure it would be a very minimal.

Will project X have differents mb for every artist or only one for all together? It could be a mess if 100ppl speak about AFX other 100 about Autechre other 100 about Squarepusher in the same mb.
Will you create a complete discography for every artist? They seem to be a lot of musicians and so it would mean lot of work for you.
btw: Don't forget µziq

jivver: Since only 35% were willing to pay for the site (according to a previous poll), maybe we'll have to implement two different types of member accounts:
- Premium members (lots of priviligies) - Standard members (basic account)
I think this is the best solution. We're not talking about much money here. Only a few dollars per year.
For comparison: Got my bill for the new site last week (webspace+domain) -> $370 USD. (aphextwin.nu and autechre.nu NOT included). So, now you know...

I think the posts here can be divided into 4 categories:
Aphex Twin related. Other Artist related. Music related (e.g. composition analysis, member's tracks). Other.
You could have a MB for each artist and then a more general "other" one.

Well, I dont have a credit card and to think that I couldnt use this site because of THAT makes me very frustrated... You should rather make and sell Phobiazero T-shirts or some other merchandize... Or design a Britteny Speers site and let the tons of money from that site fund project-x : )

I think it could be nice to have at least one mb for autechre and one for Aphex, 'cos a lot of fun from aphextwin.nu and autechre.nu could be nostalgics. :)
What's about banners and commercials on your site? Will you think to some sponsor or not?
