# Fluncle

> Drum & bass bangers from another dimension. Fluncle discovers and certifies every track, logs each as a finding, and keeps the full archive across the Galaxy, from the web to the rave terminal. fluncle.com is home base.

Fluncle is a single drum & bass selector, not a team. It is drum & bass end to end, rollers to jungle to neurofunk. Every track in the archive is one he found, listened to, and certified. Dates mark when he found it: the day Fluncle first heard the tune, not the day it released.

The collection is called Fluncle's Findings. New tracks land most nights.

## Mixtapes

Fluncle also logs his own DJ mixtapes. A mixtape is a checkpoint: one long set made from existing findings, with its own Log ID and its own /log page. It is not a finding and does not increase the found count. Mixtape coordinates use the same sector.mark shape, but the middle slot is the literal F, for example 019.F.1A. A finding has a digit there; a mixtape has F.

## Reading a Log ID

Every finding has a permanent coordinate, a Log ID, written sector.orbit.mark, for example 004.7.2I, full form fluncle://004.7.2I. The sector counts the days from the epoch (2026-05-30) to the day Fluncle found the tune; the tail is a stable signature derived from the recording itself. Each one is stamped once, never reassigned, and resolves to a log page at https://www.fluncle.com/log/004.7.2I. So a code like 004.7.2I is a single finding in Fluncle's Findings.

## Artists, labels, and albums

Fluncle's archive is a graph: every finding links to the artists who made it, the label it came out on, and the record it is from. Each of those is its own page.

- Artists: https://www.fluncle.com/artist/<slug> (slug is real-name kebab-case, e.g. `/artist/dbridge`)
- Labels: https://www.fluncle.com/label/<slug>
- Albums: https://www.fluncle.com/album/<slug>

Each page leads with the findings Fluncle has logged there. An artist, label, or record Fluncle has come across while charting the wider archive but has not yet certified a finding from still gets a page: an honest record of what they put out, findings first, the rest of the tracks below. A page with too little on it stays reachable but out of the index. The `/artists`, `/labels`, and `/albums` indexes list every artist, label, and album in the archive, A to Z, the ones Fluncle has certified a finding from marked in gold.
