Overall nice site. It hooks you as soon as you press a play button. Alas, you may lose many users in the critical seconds before that happens. The newcomer experience is too busy: too many "mottos" that allude to the purpose of the site with more cuteness than explanatory power. You could learn a bit in this respect from reddit: they only have one motto, and as a newcomer, you are welcome by a short text that stands out visually (but more elegantly than your three color salute) on a yellow background. It reads:
"reddit is a source for what's new and popular online. vote on links that you like or dislike and help decide what's popular, or submit your own!"
You see, short and to the point, but made to explain rather than to make an impact. You could add a "more..." link at the end of that if your site requires it.
The site could lose a bit of visual noise. For example, each song entry consists of four sub-rectangles. It's not clear what this division gives you. I'd make it just one rectangle and group similar items with whitespace in the same background color (that is, gray instead of white).
I don't get why some actions (download, +add) are treated so differently visually. Given the focus of the site, I can understand that you want to highlight Play and Bump, but that's it.
Believe it or not, I missed the player at the top right corner until I read about it in this thread. I'd make it stand out more, and use good old play, pause, previous, next buttons.
Your number of points is displayed in the player area. It looks like somehow it's the currently playing song who has "90 points".
OK, enough nitpicks for today. As I said, great work overall!
