Overview
Monty Hancock is a music producer, sound architect, and instrumentalist with over a decade of experience in songwriting, production, remixing, and mastering. His work spans a broad spectrum of genres—from Pop and UK Garage to Chill Beats and elegant Piano & Strings arrangements—and has earned hundreds of millions of streams worldwide.
We were commissioned to design and develop a bespoke online presence that reflects the sophistication, versatility, and artistic depth of Monty’s work. The goal was to create a standout portfolio that communicates both his creative and technical strengths while offering an immersive user experience.
Objectives
- Establish Monty Hancock as a world-class, genre-spanning music producer
- Communicate his breadth of experience across production, remixing, and composition
- Build a sleek, immersive website that highlights his music and personality
- Enhance discoverability while preserving the artistry and premium feel of his brand
Design & Development
We crafted a fast, elegant HTML-based website using modern development practices and subtle, expressive animation powered by GSAP. The design is rooted in clarity and sophistication, drawing inspiration from Monty’s refined musical sensibility. “Helvetica Now Display” was used as the cornerstone of the visual identity — modern, bold, and unmistakably premium.
A bespoke logotype was developed, accompanied by a custom-designed icon: a stylised soundwave in the shape of an “M,” reinforcing both his name and his sonic identity. Interactive animations bring the site to life without overwhelming the content. Every transition was thoughtfully timed to echo the flow and rhythm of music itself.
Website Features & Functionality

We chose to develop a bespoke HTML-built website for Monty’s brand to achieve a unique design and greater control over functionality. This approach allows for custom features and a more tailored user experience.
Bespoke Music Player
A custom-coded music player built from scratch to suit the unique aesthetic of the site allows visitors to listen to Monty’s work. The player offers seamless playback, waveform visualisation, and lightweight performance.

The website is fully responsive and performs flawlessly across devices. Whether on a desktop or mobile browser, users can explore Monty’s portfolio with ease — discovering new tracks, remixes, and compositions without interruption.
