what are those things where i stuck the arrows? if they're not gonna be links they're a bit confusing .. they look like icons and links, and nothing happens when you click.
otherwise, nice and clean, code looks good all xhtml, stylesheet.
... clicking discography gives you nothing
maybe some links to itunes, junorecords etc. for the tracks
and maybe a breadcrumb navigation aid or something, i was looking at a press bit but there was nothing to tell me where i was in the navigation, same with releases, remixes, compilations.
have a read of http://www.webstyleguide.com/ if you haven't already. and if you don't want to read it all read the interface design chapter. it's all good though.

the arrow things, well there logos from the labels yeah, and the text is our other names from
signalrunners. i just put them like that becuase thats how i wanted it to look and code wise
wasnt too sure
yeah ill need to put something in that discogs page, the sub pages (comp,rlease,remix) should
make the discog button go dark tho showing where you are -
good call on the links to store for the tracks!

also if you want the site to be a com point (though you are 'not sure' if you can handly the embarrasment of an empty forum) invite them to pump up pictures from gigs and put up a pics forum which feeds to the front page somehow with updated images

and if you're using css and xhtml, why are you using tables for layout?
if you fix the xhtml errors, you'll also find that you can't use target attribute for links, everything has to open in the same window, unless you javascript it.

it up in dreamweaver and added the boxes and artwork in etc, ive probably errored it to ribbons
adding my tables and whatnot.
aslong as it doesnt open up a big flashing window saying "beware he had no idea what he was
doing" and shows like a normal webpage ive got a result!
im guessing theres a way to make those tables on the discogs a bit smaller and styled from what
your saying - once i learned more ill 'go back in' lol

Checked it with firefox and ie on a pc and all good. Clear design, liked the little dark blocks on the menu.
Also Firefox 1 and IE 5.2 on a mac. Your site looks good on all browsers I've got. The missus mentioned the 76% font, rather than the 100.01% she uses, though she salutes Mr AV and presumes there must be a good reason.
Starts to go a bit wonky as the text size is increased.
I've seen folk flogging templates that don't look half as good.

instead of what you have now
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
and get rid of the xmlns attributes in the html tag you'll be closer to having valid html.
