Stell-R
Music discovery tool based only on mutual artistic influence
What this is
A music discovery tool that recommends artists using documented critical-influence connections rather than streaming co-listens or genre tags — for people curious about musical lineage.
Our one-line summary — not the founder’s tagline.
- How it works
- A music discovery graph where every edge represents a documented influence connection between roughly 25,000 artists, sourced from album reviews and music-history writing that explicitly cite one artist influencing another.
- What's different
- Uses documented critical-influence citations rather than streaming co-listens, user similarity, or genre tags as its recommendation basis, based on a published network-based methodology.
- Best for
- Listeners interested in tracing musical lineage and influence rather than algorithmic "you might also like" recommendations.

Media. Launched 18d ago on Product Hunt, picking up 10 votes. Today, it's been quiet for 15 days and the price has started to bleed.
Already bleeding a little every day, and it accelerates the longer it stays quiet.
We check this site every day, ourselves. A founder can post “still working on it” — a claim like that doesn't price. What we price is what we can verify from the outside: evidence, not announcements. The real question isn't “will this be huge?” — it's “will they still be moving in four weeks?”
The market viewHow this launch is priced and ranked in our league — the investor side of the page.
ranked by the reality anchor, not the market price
It launched on Product Hunt with 10 votes.
No matter how much money goes in. There is no pump here — you can't make yourself right by buying more. The line only moves on things that actually happened: an award, revenue that grew, a new platform, code that shipped — or silence.
En eski 4 hareket bu listede yok — toplam 16 olay var. 1 quiet day in between are left out — nothing happened on them. A launch that goes quiet eases down a little at a time — never a cliff you could have run from the night before.
Daily tracking just started for this launch — the first point is on the board. A second reading lands with tomorrow's run, and the curve builds from there.
How the launch is moving on its own board, day by day — the crowd's attention.
A flat line is normal: votes stop within a day or two of launch, on every board. What's unusual — and what actually counts — is a launch that keeps pulling votes long after its day is over.
About
Every edge in the Stell-R graph represents a documented influence connection between ~25,000 artists, pulled from album reviews and music-history writing where one artist's name is explicitly cited in critiques of another's work. Not streaming co-listens, user similarity, or genre tags, just documented influence. My core methodology is at: Badillo-Goicoechea, E. (2025).

The board it did best on sets the price. Every other board only adds to it if the launch also placed high on that board too — because just showing up somewhere isn't an achievement. Listing on twelve directories is free; placing well on them isn't.
