Beatrising is a digital music distributor that connects record labels and artists with major streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music. The platform serves over 10,000 record labels and specializes in high-definition electronic music distribution.

UX/UI Design

Digital platform

Jan - June 2023

Problem statement & Goals

The original Beatrising platform lacked intuitive navigation and clear information architecture, making it challenging for users to manage music distribution effectively.

Goals:
✅ Enhance navigation & content structure for ease of use
✅ Improve aesthetics & brand consistency
✅ Optimize user flows for better operational efficiency

Research & Discovery

To identify best practices, I analyzed 15 competitor websites, evaluating:

Information Architecture – Is the structure intuitive?
Ease of Navigation – Can users find what they need quickly?
Clarity of Information – Are services & processes well explained?
Aesthetic & Minimal Design – Does the UI enhance usability?
Graphic Consistency – Is branding consistent across all pages?

Brand Identity

I developed a refined, cohesive visual identity, ensuring:

Consistent branding across all touchpoints
A modern, minimalistic aesthetic aligned with industry trends
A clear, intuitive visual hierarchy for better usability

UX Process & Wireframes

We mapped out new user flows, covering both public site navigation (for record labels & artists) and operational flows (for seamless music distribution management)

Key UX Improvements:
Simplified navigation & content structure
Enhanced mobile & desktop usability
Optimized onboarding & workflow clarity

Promotional video

To highlight Beatrising’s new design & functionalities, I created a dynamic promotional video using:  

● After Effects & Premiere Pro for engaging visuals
● Music-driven motion design to align with Beatrising’s identity
● A compelling storytelling approach to boost brand awareness

Onboarding video series

I designed a series of onboarding videos to help both new and existing users navigate the platform effortlessly. These videos provide step-by-step guidance on essential tasks, including:

● Uploading new tracks
● Managing contracts and payments
● Navigating key features for efficient music distribution

Below is an example of the general onboarding video, introducing users to the platform’s core functionalities.

Reflections & Key Takeaways

This redesign transformed Beatrising’s user experience, making it more intuitive, engaging, and aligned with industry standards. Future improvements could include:

✅ Further optimizing the onboarding experience
✅ Developing A/B tests to validate UI/UX decisions
✅ Implementing additional mobile-responsive optimizations
