This is an experimental jazz collaboration graph for Neo4J created with data pulled from the open music encyclopedia Musicbrainz (musicbrainz.org). The file "jazz.cypher" contains cypher statements to load the graph into any Neo4J instance.
Nodes represent individual musicians. Edges were derived by looking at whether two musicians had collaborated in the same album release.
Here is a query to get you started:
MATCH p = (a:Artist)-[:PLAYED_WITH]-(a2:Artist) WHERE a.name = 'Miles Davis' RETURN p
name: string,
deceased: boolean,
gender: boolean, <--- 1 for male, 0 for female
country: string,
genre: string <--- will always equal to "jazz" in this case
Nodes: 12720 Edges: 139187
