Crimson Beatstream
Cinematic Music Platform for Artists & Listeners
🚀 Hello Indie Hackers!
I'm Atharva, a 17-year-old founder from India, and over the past several weeks I've been building Crimson Beatstream.
I started this project because I felt that music platforms have become very functional but often lack a strong emotional and identity-driven experience. My vision is to build a cinematic music platform where discovering music feels immersive rather than just scrolling through playlists.
Current progress:
• Live web application
• Built with Next.js and Firebase
• User authentication and artist profiles
• Music playback and playlists
• Original music ecosystem led by Canon X
• Actively improving the platform every week
One of the biggest lessons I've learned so far is that building the product is only half the journey. The other half is getting it in front of real people, collecting feedback, and improving based on what users actually need.
I'm here to learn from other founders, share my journey, and receive honest feedback.
If you'd like to check it out or have suggestions, I'd love to hear them.
Looking forward to building in public with all of you!
