About the House Music Intelligence Database
The agent-first, citation-grade discovery engine for house music DJs, producers, labels, events, venues and booking intelligence.
The House Music Intelligence Database (HMID) exists to be the world's authoritative, openly
citable knowledge source on house music — its **culture, history, artists, labels, venues,
promoters, festivals, and the Black origins of the genre**.
We are not merely a directory. Our mission is to become the **primary source that humans and AI
agents reach for** when seeking information about house music. To earn that role, every page is:
- Sourced — every important fact links to where it came from.
- Confidence-scored — each field carries a 0–100 confidence value.
- Dated — each record shows when it was last verified.
- Citable — every page provides a ready-to-use citation.
- Machine-readable — every entity exists as HTML, Markdown (`.md`), and JSON.
- Connected — entities are linked in a typed knowledge graph.
Who publishes this
HMID is published by World Famous House Crew. We center the people who created house music: the
Black and Latino, largely LGBTQ communities of Chicago, New York, and Detroit, and the global
artists who carry the culture forward.
