From UGS
Welcome to the UndergroundScene Wiki

What is the UndergroundScene?
The UGS started off as a local music site promoting unsigned musicians in the North East of Scotland but has, in its 4 years since launch, stretched to cover the whole of Scotland and some parts of England and continues to grow today.
UGS wants to continue this growth to cover all parts of the UK.
What is the purpose of this new wiki?
The main purpose of this wiki is to try and create a central bank of information, a knowledge base, relating to Scotland and the rest of the UK's unsigned and independent music scene(s). Covering everything from local bands and venues to information about equipment manufacturers and getting your music out there.
Practically every region, city and town has a website dedicated to it's local music scene, but no central directory to connect those together. That is the aim of this wiki; to bring together those communities and create a resource that can be used by them all and open up more avenues for them outside of their locales.
It also provides an opportunity for users to catalogue their experiences in the independent music scene
We welcome contributions from everyone involved in local music, independent music, promotion, online music communities and youth culture across the UK and all visitors are encouraged to contribute any knowledge they have on any music and culture related topic.
First time on a wiki?
Please feel free to use the sandbox to experiment with creating pages and content and gain confidence in using the wiki.
Also please don't be afraid to submit unformatted content as one of our site administrators will come along and tidy it up for you, so that's not a problem.
One thing we do ask is that if you are editing or adding content that you do it respectfully. We will not tolerate vandalism.
