#2I'd be skeptical. Often musicians left to make the music they want to make make stuff nobody cares about. I think of the Gerry Rafferty album City to City which is all hee haw music that sounds the same except for the hit tracks.

#4Please consider linking to something informative, not just a page with a huge picture where they apparently spent more time on the 3d effect than the actual usability of the site, you can't click on anything, it's just....weird.

What 3d effect?

#7Hey, that's great! ...and the first track is an hour-long Boiler Room set. May be you can implemented some kind of filtering feature?

I think he's referring to the parallax banner...which probably didn't take much time at all to implement, but is arguably distracting and unnecessary.

#10I think this is a really neat idea. I actually know one artist (diplo I think) has started a second SC account just for retweeting stuff he recommends. I have a couple of accounts and am quite particular about the music I favourite (has to be stuff that my followers would also like e.g. No rock music on my EDM account and vice versa). I'm not sure everyone is like this though so it might be difficult to find accounts of artists who favourite music their fans would also like. It leaves an opportunity for you to do some sort of curation of artists with a good history of favouriting.
Edit:
Is the site open source?
