the brief was one platform standing in for three properties under one operator. Sand City Studio, the Burn County catalog and the label's marketing arm read like three separate businesses because they serve three separate audiences, session clients, catalog listeners, and the labels who book into the room. before the build they ran as three logins and three different ideas of what the site even was. the platform had to make Ty Weathers' single operation legible as one, without pretending a studio, a record label and a marketing arm are the same job.

the store runs on Stripe Direct. money from a record sale or a booked session lands in Burn County's own Stripe account, not a marketplace escrow and not a platform that takes a percentage before the label sees a dollar. no BeatStars-style commission, no monthly store rent, checkout code written for this label specifically, not a theme pulled off a marketplace.

underneath the three brands is one build. the records wall on this page feeds Sand City Studio's own site directly, so a chart placement never gets re-typed in two places. session booking, the catalog and the marketing arm's own pages run on the same codebase and the same domain infrastructure, so adding a record or a booking slot is one change, not three. every credential to all of it sits with Ty Weathers, not with Studio Raine, the same way every Studio Raine build ships.
