Websites of the Week: Don?t Stop the Music [446]

If you’ve been following this blog lately you would have noticed multiple posts dedicated to music. (Cliche alert) That’s because I believe that life would have no meaning if there weren’t any music.

As Friedrich Nietzsche puts it, ?Without music, life would be a mistake?

But seriously, most people I know ((designers)ers) often work with some form of background music or ambient sound. I’ve had close friends admit to me that they are more productive, and that the background buzz increases their concentration. And as research would have it, your creative juices will in fact, start flowing once you set the noise level to moderate.

So today in our weekly roundup of websitessites, I’ve discovered a handful of premium inspiration and creative websitessites that focuses on music. So have a look, make your own tunes or listen to some, either way, don’t stop the music!

Like Google, I always qualify a good websitesite by the amount of time I spend on it. Well in this case I had all 12 people whom I work with crowding around my laptop checking this site out for almost 10 minutes. Some even found out what the url is so they can go back to their desk to test it out for themselves. That says a lot.

Listen to some beats, then sponsor a flamingo! These beautiful, long-legged birds live in large flocks that can include thousands. Their unique bills help them feed by plunging their heads into the water upside-down and filtering the water for shrimp, which in turn gives the flamingo its bright pink color.
