MusicPlasma… a new innovative music search tool

I discovered yet another interesting site from del.icio.us today. MusicPlasma is a flash web interface that allows you to search for music artists that are similar to your search criteria. What’s impressive is the way that the results are displayed. The graphical interface allows you to see which artists are most popular, how closely they are related (by genre and other artists), and navigate to new artists to refresh the context and relationships. Clicking on the artist gives detailed info about their albums and even provides click-throughs to Amazon. This is definitely worth keeping an eye on.
