I like the fact it is nice and simple. A couple of things you might want to look at though....

• on the flash banner, replace the 'play' and 'stop' with a simple graphic button (arrow for play, double lines for stop) people are familiar with these, and it'll blend more with the banner itself.

• also on the banner, the girl at the decks is suffering a bit from compression, looks a bit pixelated - could you animate her too?

• the dancing figures look a bit too similar to the ipod ads that were out - add an alpha tween or blend them more into the background to make them more unique.

• one last thing, the colours on the nav menu don't relate to anything else - have you tried them in shades of green or grey?

I'm being extremely critical, most of these things are minor, but I hope you don't mind my honesty.

I can't comment on the design side as I don't have an artistic bone in my body, so will leave it to those that are qualified.

How did you find the customer - was it through this website?

Do you get many leads through your website? The reason why I ask is I've always wondered whether small business websites are really worth the hassle.

no, most of my work is from 'word of mouth'

there are too many huge companys that have budgets of millions of pounds for advertising - to have any real impact on the internet.

one point i would make is that it takes quite a while to load the banner...some people wont wait, others will think the site is not loading and leave.
