Artist distribution platform.
A music-distribution platform for independent artists, one of four web properties I architected for a creative agency over seven years.
- Stack
- PHP, MySQL, AWS
- Scale
- Four platforms, one infrastructure
- Role
- CTO
Flow
- Artist upload
- Processing
- Catalogue
- Storefront
- Fans
How it works
Artists uploaded releases, the platform processed and catalogued them, and fans bought or streamed from a storefront. Shared infrastructure served this and three sibling properties.
Hard parts
- Media processing and delivery at a time when the tooling for it was far less mature.
Outcome
Named Best Website at the 2012 Dubstep Music Awards.
