The Tube Map of Music

This Tube map of music is just too cool for words.

Each line represents a genre; each connection point represents an artist that combines the genres in some way.

Each branch line represents a sub-genre: rock sprouts off into grunge and psychedelia when it reaches South-West London; hip-hop diverges, north of Camden, into old school and New York rap. If I was really lucky, the band name echoed the original station name: Highbury & Islington became Sly & the Family Stone.
