The Untz (About Us):
As fans of electronic music, we were frustrated having to search so many websites to find the information we were looking for. Specifically, we wanted to track our favorite artists, search upcoming local area events, and listen to music samples from a variety of electronic music genres. We wanted to visit one website for all of our electronic music informational needs. The Untz was created to fill this void. The Untz connects the entire electronic music community of fans, artists and promoters. The website is designed to allow artists and promoters to add information and music. We organize all of this information so fans can easily search for, track, and share it.
