What is important to you in a Music/Musician site?

Posted by MaestroRage - May 18th, 2008


So here I am, trying to figure out what would help as many people as possible, and time is always something i'm running around trying to find... with bad results most of the time. So in an attempt to give the audience what they want most, i'm running a poll, and throwing some ideas out there. I'd love it if you could either support, or suggest something you'd like to see in here.

Some already planned features.
1: NG Audio Database
- Hand picked best of the best, stored in one place to allow people to easily listen to the best the portal has to offer.
Current Progress: 75% There are some issues with the log-in screen, that for some reason has no discernible solution, for now, we leave this behind for other ventures
2: Pop Up MP3 Flash player
- I've grown tired of forcing people to go to a different page to listen to the works that can be found there. So instead, i'm going to fix that mp3 player, and have that instead. Plus the website is broken in that we can't upload new music... it may not be fixed for a long time, so... yeah... we're changing to this.
3: Free Audio Software/Samples page
- Constantly updated, constantly new stuff to play with.
4: Add midi files for some songs, explaining how it was all done, from start to finish. Thought processes involved during it's construction, and all that other good stuff.
5: In depth reviews to some of the more expensive, powerful programs, which many musicians may be trying to figure out if it's worth it's salt.
+ Video Tutorials on how to use these programs. (Suggested by Danman87)
X: TOP SECRET
- Really.

So what else would you want to see, or find useful in a music site? All suggestions are taken to heart.


Comments

Maybe some details about what the musical peice is about, or what inspired you to make the music. . . something too give the listener a bit to think about?

Not sure what you think of this diea, but it's worth a shot

(^^)

That reminds me of another feature actually, but that's a pretty good idea! added!

It sounds really good...I like the idea...yeah but a description would be good....
Check my movies out and review them or comment on my page...

A good addition to point 5 would be a few video tutorials to the specific program. Especially the more complex sequencers like Cubase are hard to figure out for a person who's using it for the very first time.

brilliant idea! Added, thanks!

music

i really like #4 :D

so do I :D!

What about some artwork like picture / music video? Um, seems a bit tough...
btw dont u think the list in the left frame a bit overwhelming?... Tide things up plz!

quite right, i've been meaning to make that more tidy for a while. Thanks for the suggestion!

How about a better way of GROUPING music, for the artist. As in, being able to mimic albums on here that they've created, so that if a person likes one particular song, they can see the other songs of that album, and (if they match the style) see if they like THOSE as well. It would help get more people to review on the old besides just the new. A sort of, renaissance I guess.

Cowbells

we need moar of them...

What happened to all suggestions taken to heart? =P

They are. I have written your suggestion down. Sorry I didn't respond to your last post D:

I should probably update the thing though eh?

Is Symphony of Spectres gettin' an overhaul? Or is this a compleatley NEW site?

...Also, I know what teh top secret thing is XD

no, that's top top secret. It's not even written down there.

And yes, we're planning a complete rehaul. We've wired too much crap into too many wrong holes, and now it's threatening us in Japanese Or at least, it sounds like Japanese...

don't know man, the site's gotta go.

WOOT! Maestro congratulations for getting on TOP 5 and All time top!!! ; )

Congratulations, Maestro, on being so goddamned awesome.

Knew you would win Musician of the Year.

As for 4 and 5, I would love to help you out, but I currently have no idea how to record video directly. I'll figure it out eventually.

Anyways. Drop me a line.

Hey, congrats on Musician of 2007! :D

WOOT! Maestro you just got voted best musician of 2007, you are a true genious! Congratulations! Check Tom's post in front page ; )

PEACE!

Why have you shown no one your face? What are you hiding! >:(

MUSICIAN OF THE YEAR?!

Congratulations man!! That's pure awesome!

Here is one suggestion I have for the Audio portal...

Maybe a slight more strict voting system... As usually when I upload something in about 1 min after uploading I find someone has voted 0.00 for absolutly no reason... Not even really listening...

I just find it rather anoying...

I've already PMd Wave Fulp about that Vexorian and he responded to me saying my idea of how to fix the 0bombing was good ; )
(PM me if you want to know how they will fix the 0bombing problem in the AP, I will post my idea in the forums anyway)

Btw congratulations for best audio artist of 2007 Maestro!!! ^.~

sounds great! im so glad ur trying to make a useful music site :D

Congrats on winning best musician
