Analysis of Music Websites

From this task I learnt a lot about how a music website is presented and how important they are in promoting the artist. This task has given me a good insight into the codes and conventions used on a typical website. Before this research I had never been on a music website so I discovered that the best way to find out about an artist going on tour is on the website. Key information about each artist is easily found in the website whereas on a music video on YouTube it may be hard. A music website is also great for showing the target audience of a website. A music video can often only display the message of a single song and not the artists overall opinions and audience. The website shows clearly what the artist message is. For example Jessy Js website conveys a rebellious nature rather than a typically brightly coloured mainstream pop artists website which can represent joy.
