VIA Studio launches robertrich.com

OK then... longtime poster, first time admin. As my first post, unfortunately it's a show off piece by my own firm, VIA Studio. Up for your critical eyebones is a site that we finished a couple months ago, robertrich.com.
Robert Rich is a musician primarily focused in the realms of ambient electronic. He's released over 30 albums in the course of the last 20 years, and is extremely well regarded in his genre. He has recorded for film and television, and as an added bonus makes his own wine, which we've had the honor of tasting on multiple occasions. Robert also lives very close to the Google campus in Mountain View, CA, so we've got a spy for us on what's going on out west.
This site was quite a fun project for us, because not only did it allow us to stretch out creatively for a client, it's also a musician that we adore here at the office. This project encompassed creative design, an audio player, custom discography database, a little search engine optimization, and a whole lotta love.
By the way, my name's Jason. Pleased to meet you. I'm a big fan of the city and honored to be a part of a community that's trying to make design a part of the dialogue here.
Looking at the weather has never been so exciting. If you haven't seen the commercial yet, here is a glimpse of the new WLKY weather page.

Get your favorite info at the top and configure to your liking. Very similar to iGoogle, which I am a pretty big fan of. The nice thing about Google is your information remains clean. I am not quite sure that is achieved here. Also not quite sure if this is an in house project over at WLKY or if it was outsourced. We will gladly post the info if you know.
