Pelorian Designed Website Example
Starseed Music
Client’s Request:
Starseed wanted a website to feature the group’s music, and direct visitors to buying CDs or audio downloads. Starseed’s unique sound needed to have a website design that reflected the group’s personality and philosophy of making music. This included:
- an introduction to Starseed music
- listing of all CDs with audio samples and sales links
- video of Starseed in concert
- additional information pages
Designer’s Comments:
This site was created some years ago when Flash animation was popular. The audio player on the site was Flash, but it has since been upgraded to a cool implementation of multiple audio players on the same page that are aware of one another. That’s a little hard to explain, but it is a nice improvement over generations of previous internet audio players. As YouTube has developed, the site’s video player has also been upgraded to a multi-featured video playlist module. Starseed is also connected to several music promotion and distribution networks, such as iTunes, Amazon, Youtube, CDBaby, ReverbNation and SoundCloud.
