Introduction
We have been trying to get our website developped over recent months and have had the wonderful 
The look
One of the first things we needed to decide was how it would look and what was going on with fonts and graphics and things like this. We are musicians not graphic designers so it was great to have help.
Going with our branding we went with a simple black and white look as you can see and gringo added a few moving masks which we are still developing. as you can see here.
We also thought we would add a few gifs as we are giphy trending a lot and we started adding a few in the blue...
So going with this simple look we could then apply it to everything else on the site so it all looked consistent.
The organisation
Now trying to organise what we do was tricky. There are quite a lot of us and we work in many aspects of themusic industry but also want to promote Hive as well as our Gifs and services. So this thought process is still being developped. I think we currently have to much and it is just holding information. So we started to develop the menu and also what we were offering. This has definitely changed and will change agin.
The content
Those of you that know us will know that we have a lot of content! However we had to make decisions on what we are trying to cheive on our website. Getting people to listen to music or watch youtube video is hard, it is a very over saturated market in this modern days of everyone being able to release what ever music they like! Soright now we are looking at making our website specifically for people who make music and work in studios or make music at home. So we are currently working on providing free loops and construction kits for people to download. We have done very well working for Producer Loops and sell a alot of kits on there so we though it would be great if we add lots of free loops to our website.
So at the moment we added one whole song but are planning to release different loops regularily for people to come and download for free!
We also wanted to start adding demos and tutorials to the site so people can come and learn a bit more about production and equipment. we are developing this at the moment and it is not as easy as it seems. brains is having to work overtime to do this! This is what we are working on at the moment and need to develop the web format.
Conclusion
Well this is work in progress but if you saw our old website then you will see that we are developing. we are not afraid of hard work and I think in about 3 months this will be up and running with regular content and a clear focus. Any suggestions or help are greatly appreciated!
