Cool, I'd love to help as I'm hardcore entrenched in music culture and love seeing innovation in the space. But alas, I have no skills as a developer.. I did however just come across this article which may be of interest as you search for someone:
Thanks for the link. That is definitely the kind of thing I have kept in mind as I have created this product. I've spent enough years in software development that as a UX guy, I have been approached with far too many harebrained schemes that turn out to be "do free work for me to see if my idea is any good." I personally hate that crap and I'm doing what I can to not come off that way.
At the same time, I feel like I have to walk a delicate line between being open and forthcoming enough to attract potential partners and just opening my kimono and having a public discussion on the minutiae of my product, designs, market research, and business projections. Don't get me wrong, I certainly think the product concept is mature, viable, and worth building. I'll open the kimono willingly, it just has to be in private and with a potential long-term partner :)

Yeah I totally hear you on that. Wasn't really suggesting anything there. Best of luck with the project!
Good, simple, practical article.
It touches on most of the problems I have seen.
