Survey Results

We distributed the survey over Facebook and Watsapp, gathering a total of 33 results. as shown below, the vast majority of these results are within the bracket of our target audience. We also have a few older and younger answers, which gives us an idea of what other perspectives on the genre could be.

The answer to this is very mixed. The majority said no, however the disparity in answers shows that it may not be overwhelmingly true. We will, however, go with the majority, and our album art will be reflective of the artistic design previously shown in Mount Kimbies releases.

The majority answer is that they do not want to see the artist. This fits with what we wanted to do, and with Mount Kimbies album art. There is a significant maybe answer, but this only means they can appreciate both kinds of cover.

The overwhelming majority of people preferred Mount Kimbie's album art to any of the other options. From this, we are going to create our album to be similar to theirs in that we will use bold colours and abstract geometric forms to create a cover focused on form.

For this we received a mixed decision between painting and graphic design. This fits into our plan to make the album art abstract and appearance based. We have decided that graphic design is more appropriate than a painting as it fits the modern nature of electronic music.

From this question it is very apparent that aesthetic design is the most important factor in the design of a website. Functionality remains important, but from this we will make sure to focus on the aesthetic design specifically.

As this question received an even split between XYLO and James Blake, we will look at the layouts of both these websites and try to create a compromise incorporating the best features of both of these websites.

Clearly from these results websites and Facebook are the most important ways to distribute information. We can reflect this by including important information on our website, and by prominently linking the Facebook page among other social media.

From these answers we will take the most frequently mentioned information and inclde this on our website. This seems to be Photographs, concert dates, merchandise, a biography, new releases, press and a blog. We may not include all of these: for example a gallery of photographs is unnecessary given the functionality of social media.
