Biffy Clyro // Live at Wembley // Free Download Widget
https://www.biffyclyro.com/downloads/free-live-songs.htm
Celebrating the release of ‘Revolutions // Live at Wembley’ we made two songs available to download for free.
Live versions of the massive hits ‘Mountains’ and ‘Bubbles’ are available by joining the mailing list through an embeddable and sharable widget.
Kate Brighouse designed the widget and I got to work building the Flash file with all the necessary functionality.
The widget includes playback functionality to stream previews of the two songs, a sign-up form with actionscript validation, Google Analytics tracking, facebook and twitter sharing buttons and a pop-up dialogue allowing the user to copy the embed code.
When users sign-up they’re sent an email with the download link for the two songs. They are also directed to Team Biffy where registered members can get a third free download of ‘Machines’.
The widget was one of our most successful yet, and was featured across all the major music websites as well as the blogosphere.
