I think this is fantastic. The layout immediately reminded me of looking at the elaborate covers and inserts in my dad's vinyl collection while listening. Essentially, feels like a more intimate way to engage music.
Definitely still some UI bugs, but I really like the direction.
The biggest UI bugs I noticed:
1) When the next song came on by auto play, the background/info didn't update. I went into "info" then exited and it updated.
2) Once I clicked for more info on a song, I couldn't immediately figure out how to get back to the bare, initial layout.
3) Next/Prev buttons disappeared when the info about the artist was up, which I couldn't close. Annoying not to be able to go to the next song when I didn't like the current one.
Anyway, congrats, I really like this.
- bradgessler 17y agoI'd like to add to that: 3) When I hover over a button/icon for a second or two, a tooltip would help tremendously to figure out what the button does. This is a really great, unique design. Well done. Update: I have run into some usability issues that I can't really describe because I have no idea how I got into whatever the feature is suppose to be. I don't think this UI is very forgiving for newcomers like myself. You're onto something with this "vinyl" look, and I know the improvements you're thinking about will probably fix most of these issues.
