3 New Musician Sites!

This new site for composer Jeremy Zuckerman has a custom Wordpress back-end that helps to keep a growing amount of content as minimal as possible. I got to play with jQuery Address, which allowed us to load pages like the biography and even the blog inside a div with ajax calls without resorting to iframes. Look for upcoming posts about this one where I'll share some tips about working with WordPress and jQuery Address.

We pretty much created an online magazine for Kate's new site! It's another totally tricked out WordPress back-end, lots of jQuery goodness, and some killer features like filtering music and video clips by tag. There's so much good information on here already and I'm thrilled that Kate has been adding new posts weekly since we've been building the site, so expect some great content to come if you're into voice, anatomy, and how our minds and bodies work.

This new site is the tour de force Tree Adams musical experience! You can browse his prolific catalog of film and TV works and soundtrack and solo artists record releases. We picked Django to handle the expansive CMS for this site, and I confess I like working with Django/Python more than WordPress/PHP when it's right for the needs of the project. I threw in some heavy jQuery magic for effects that formerly would have required Flash. The whole thing even works on iPhone!
It's a pretty exciting time in the web world with such amazing open source software and libraries out there. I'm honored to work with these talented and artistic clients and I hope you enjoy their new sites.
