A revamped website, and a bunch of new artists

Lots happening in this little corner of the internet!

While I'm sure this project hasn't even reached v1.0 status yet, this second wave of updates certainly feels like a v2.0. I've automated some of the heavy lifting associated with generating entries; I've given the site a bit of a facelift. There's a new locations page for viewing artists grouped by origin. Entries are currently heavily skewed toward Portland, Oregon, so if you fancy seeing more of anywhere else represented on the site, jump in! Contribute to the project.

31 artists are now represented on Sound Accumulator - wow! It might not seem like much, but it's a big start, and a happy proof of concept. As far as I'm concerned, the sky's the limit here.
