Website Title: Music.com
URL: http://www.music.com
Involvement: Design of home page, websites for musical artists and flash animated ecards.
Active Era: 1999-2001

Music.com, an online music company, received millions of visitors during its peak activity 1999 to 2001 while I was employed there. The website featured downloadable music, current music news, album reviews, viral marketed animated e-cards, artist interviews and served as a promotion tool for many new artists. I was a key player in the design of three successful relaunches of its own web site including the era of the site shown here. I also developed artist promotion sites for Lou Reed, Henry Rollins, Danzig, Jill Sobule, Serge Lopez, Samhain, Paul Overstreet, R.L. Burnside and SClub7. Using Flash, I independently created e-cards for Willa Ford's single, "I Wanna Be Bad" and Placebo's "Special K". Collaborating with co-worker David Hatchard saw the creation of an e-card for Ray-J's "Wait a Minute" featuring Lil' Kim. Music.com ceased operations in June 2001 and a smaller scale version of the site with new management exists today.
