Carlyle Studios
Overview
André from Carlyle Studios wanted a professional website that showcased his music production and live show services. We built it from the ground up to stay true to their brand and display their previous work in an engaging way. We designed it from the perspective of an artist looking for a new studio. What do they have on offer? What have other artists said? What does the music they've made sound like? Will I fit well with this studio? Can I trust them? Lots of negative space, strong brand colours and awesome photography by JTL Media help tell this story and show Carlyle Studios at its best.
Biggest Challenge
We wanted a sleek way to showcase the songs André had produced. After looking all over for a solution it became apparent that no one or very few people had created something like this. It was time to get dirty and custom code a solution. Through some thorough research we found that Spotify provides a URL to a 30 second preview of every song on the platform. We were able to link the preview URLs to our custom audio player and we were in business!
Conclusion
It was a pleasure working with André and I think we built an awesome website that we can both be proud of (I mean it is on this portfolio after all).
