As we’ve posted about at the Burst Labs blog, there’s a host of new features now available at our online production music catalog.

We’ve been listening to our clients and friends over the past 6 months as requests were made and complaints were registered. While there are a few issues left to tackle, we wanted to get an update activated so some of the major issues would be addressed (recently played tracks, all forms in Flash, that sort of thing…).

There’s a quick 5 minute video walkthrough at the end of the Burst Labs blog post about the update, for those interested in moving picture demos, and some more detail on the upgrades right here :

Production Music Discovery Engine

Our music discovery engine got a few cool new features… a larger ‘live’ area for clicking ‘play preview,’ previously played tracks are darkened in the specimen dish, and the most recently played tracks appear as a pop up at the audio player.

Search Catalog by Keyword

There are some subtle interface tweaks at the search function… the navigation of multiple pages of results is now consistent across the site, and the time (or song duration) is visible in all lists of tracks.

Featured Artists and Music Collections

Our featured artist tab has been modified a bit, and it’s supposed to also randomly select compilations of production music that have been tagged to be included on the home page… don’t get me started on the things that were supposed to be included here. Argh. Anyone know an amazing Flash and PHP guru who actually gets work done when they say they will?!

Our Music Licensing Blog

As always, the most recent updates to our blog are visible at our home page, but we’ve expanded the list of available news items to five.

One more tip… if you don’t get our updates via RSS yet, it’s the absolute fastest way to get the latest news and brand new production music.
