It's a nice idea, but there seems to be a fatal flaw:
The first three entries that I tried all came back with terrible tracks.
In comparison, The Sixty One seems to have found a nice approach in limiting the tracks that you first encounter so that you're likely to have a good first impression and explore further. The stuff on their front-page tends to be really good stuff even if it often misses my genre sweet-spot.
You might consider something along those lines with curated tracks being the first encounter to make sure you get things off on the right foot.
I used to go to thesixtyone and found a ton of great music that way, but when they changed their site I couldn't navigate it at all it was/is completely unintuitive and annoying compared to the old interface. I can't find any of the artists I haven't heard of easily unless they are top scorers and it is maddening that such a good site was destroyed for design.
Edit: whoever downvoted me please show me the error in my ways I really would like to use the site again but just can't because it seems like only those artists who everyone thinks is wonderful are easily found while the true gems that you looked for on the site are now impossible to find.
