Overview of Forté Music
Forté Music is an iPhone app built for discovering new musicians. It uses a card-style interface where short audio previews introduce you to artists, and simple gestures let you indicate interest. The app blends music discovery with an engaging, swipe-driven interaction model to surface songs and performers that match your tastes.
How discovery works
- Short clips are presented so you can sample tracks quickly and decide if you like them.
- Swipe or tap to register your preferences: move a card one way to save, the other to skip.
- Your choices help the app tailor future suggestions, creating a personalized feed of artists and tracks.
Artist mini-sites (Poster pages)
Forté gives each artist a compact, customizable mini-site called a Poster where they can present their work and links in a single place. Key elements include:
- Direct links to singles, videos, and social profiles so fans can follow and explore more.
- Tools that let musicians manage their rights and control what’s shown on their Poster.
- A customizable layout where artists highlight releases, tour dates, or featured media.
- Options for tracking engagement so creators can see how listeners interact with their content.
