Title: Design

The current design isn't friendly:

![reddit music charts - google chrome_004](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/638535/1669823/9ab1789a-5c82-11e3-83bb-7eb151e81d26.png)https://music.twitter.com/

Ideas for new interface:

* Chart feature page - Show images of artists found in that subreddit.
* Play music in page - Make use of Tom.js, or link to the Tom project.
* Search/Filter - Filter out subreddits based on search queries
* Server & Client Side Rendering - Make for the fastest and Google compatible pages.

Taking a look around the web there seems to be two main trends in showing charts:

1) Listed tracks such as [Radio 1](http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/singles), Spotify (In App), Tomahawk (In App) & Last.fm.

2) As an image heavy grid such as [WeAreHunted/Twitter Music](https://music.twitter.com/) and [iTunes](https://www.apple.com/itunes/charts/songs/).
