Tests and artist accounts: OPUS Development Update 8

The development of our platform continues and we are proud to welcome Léscines on board. Over the last two weeks, we have made significant progress in both our web and mobile players.

On the mobile apps, we have been working on making sure they work well on the backend. This included extensive tests of the features that are ready. On the frontend, we have completed screens for the library and albums. The apps are starting to take more and more shape, and users can now play music on them.

On the web player, we have been building the main screen and the search function. On the backend, there has been visible progress with payments in cryptocurrencies and setting up wallets on the platform. We have also been conducting tests for the web player to ensure that we are on the right track.

Over the next two weeks, we plan to complete the functions that will be used by artists. This includes uploading albums and individual tracks, accessing statistics regarding the uploaded content, transferring the generated revenue to the artist, and creating a list of transactions to the artist based on the blockchain.

We will also be finishing playlist creation and viewing songs on the mobile apps, and we will begin working on the search and explore functions.

The following two weeks will also include work on the updated whitepaper. The content should be finished within two weeks, after which we will work on the graphical design.

Léscines

Léscines are a musical collaboration rooted from London’s underground network of dive bars and basement gatherings which have shaped their eclectic sound and spontaneous live performances. Jay’s unique lyrics and earworm riffs are bedrocked in his committed, passionate delivery and with the current line up have been catapulted into the outer cosmos by the intertwining counter melodies of ‘Trumpet’ Mark Schorah on brass, Fea on lead guitar, Kai-ya on drums and vocals all book-ended by Ricky ‘Disco’ on bass, vocals, engineering and production. Their forthcoming new album is due for release in Spring 2018 with some exciting releases planned from early 2018 and during the lead-up to the album release on vinyl.
