   Thanks all!

   @Pontus Johansson Actual app. I know just enough Objective-C/Cocoa to be dangerous. :)

    Is the video a recording of the actual app or did you use After Effects or similar?

    Love this one! The grammar is wrong, though. Adding "´s" at the end is not correct Swedish. it should just be "Peters" :)

    Nice work, I know that it takes a lot of effort to put a mock up like this together, and you've got some really nice elements in the design.

    If you wanted some feedback, here are a few thoughts:

    I don't think it's the best idea to pull the colours from the new site into the app. From one point of view, it definitely seems like a good idea to get the brand colours in the design. But from another point of view, and if you're thinking about the experience of the app, I think what Rdio has done in their new design works really well. The desaturated UI really helps you focus on your music (like iTunes does). The only bright colours on the screen is your music's album art and photos of your friends. And at a glance you know where you are in the app with the blue sidebar highlight.

    If Rdio is all about playing music and discovering what your friends are listening to, everything in the design should try and help you do that. There are elements and colour in your mock-up that draw your eye away from the music, it feels like the interface and content are too connected. And the blue top bar might be taking too much attention away, it might help if there's some kind of contrast with the two so your eye lands on your music first.

    It's also hard to quickly see where you are at first glance when the selected sidebar item is dark and the player controls at the bottom are also dark. If you made the top bar and bottom player controls the same colour, the app might feel more unified and the music might feel more centre stage.

    We launched the new FTW site yesterday, complete with fresh new branding, updates, and some sneak peeks at our upcoming mobile apps.

    Go check it out!

    Sidenote: designing for Android has taught me a lot. If you follow the guidelines and design for the platform itself, instead of shoehorning iOS design into it, it can be really beautiful.
