  • a pool of people attached
  • multiple fictional "record labels" each with...
    • a pool of people taken from the scene pool
    • multiple fictional "artists" attached each with ...
      • people drawn from the label pool
      • one or more incarnations of the group, each with...
        • multiple fictional "albums" released each with...
          • generated artwork for multiple formats (CD, 12in etc) generated in SVG and ImageMagick
          • multiple tracks of generated music
  • a Family Tree of all the artists and their incarnations and personnel, in the style created by Pete Frame

With a single seed, a whole music scene and discography is created!
