Hi Aural,
I'm so sorry, but I think you're missing the point of our website a wee bit.
It's purpose is to give new, unsigned musical talent a platform on the web, to air their own original music for free.
It is intended that it will cater for all types and genres of music, and since there are only about 20-odd tracks on there at the moment, we don't
feel it necessary to sub-divide them further (although if the number of tracks did increase significantly, we would certainly consider that as an
option - thanks for the idea!).
If you don't like any track, you can immediately skip to the next one with one mouse click (unlike other web based "radio stations"). No need to
listen to any thing that you don't like.
It is already open to all unsigned musical talent (not just "bands").
The band info (details of the artist, their track AND how to contact them directly) automatically displays at the bottom of the screen when their
track is playing.
I'm not aware of any "non functional links"??? We don't have any non-clickable links.
There are simple text based contact details which the artists provide for us to display along with their song as part of the track title.
We deliberately do not store any further information about the artist.
If you like them - get in touch with them directly, that's the whole point... to let THEM reach you and YOU them.
No need to "save" them on our site. Once you've found them on our site...if you like them, you follow that up by visiting THEIR site or contacting
them for info on where you can hear more of their stuff using the contact details that they have chosen to display with the track info on the
player.
We really like the simplicity of the site, and we are pretty sure our visitors do too
We don't want to get into the position of having to sort out security, passwords, accounts, logins etc. and we believe that our visitors prefer the
immediate "hassle-free" access that they have now.
Thanks again for taking the trouble to put some thoughts and ideas into this!
regards
Gordi
