It looks like a solid app and I think your feature with in-app purchases will work good for the audience. However; outside U.S. so I can just wish you good luck with the sale.
I have thought about this too living in Sweden where I as an employee had 25 days of vacation a year and how to bring that in to my freelancing.
As I see it; impossible. You can charge an extra in time or money to make up for it, but when you go on vacation as a freelancer you do not have anyone running the office.
When I got a lot of CV requests from recruiters I took a similar yet much more childish approach to your mail.
I created a PDF with my name, email and a link to my linkedin-profile. That way I could see if they had a look at my profile, most did and I actually got some good laughs and a couple of interviews with it.
SEEKING FREELANCER / CO-FOUNDER - Stockholm, Sweden / Remote
I am working on a self-funded project, call it a start-up. My progress with Python is unfortunately not going to result in a MVP anytime soon; and that is why I am open to team up with a full-stack developer that can be in charge of the development; as a freelancer or co-founder.

I really like the sources and amount of content you picked out. Good choice of a domain as well.
But like sangupta and amirf I think you should improve the UI a bit; maybe have a go with twitter's bootstrap?
One thing I really would like is that you skip the two columns and narrowed it down do one column and worked a bit on the navigation so that it's on one line or grouped in some shape or form.
You could try to apply your current learning pattern first; read books on color theory to get going.
Another thing that could be fun for you just to get going is to re-design services you like and try to improve them, in your eyes.
How to answer this question has made me argh as well.
My answer is entirely based on how I judge the person asking. if it is a recruiter of some sort; "Yes". If it is someone who I guess is a bit more familiar with HTML5 level I would ask them to be more specific.
"Are brands basically a way to let people be lazy by outsourcing their thinking?"
I think not. Brands as I see them are much about experience and expectations. Myself; I am loyal to a handful of brands. Call me a Nike AF1 sneakerhead or a apple fanboy. But what it comes down to for me is the experience that these brands deliver; and I know what to expect from them.
With that said I believe that brands are built over time on customer interaction and the value provided.
Working good on my Chrome, OS X.
And I think it's a great project, will check out the github.
A suggestion would be to change the play-icon to pause and add some kind of progress bar to it when a song is playing?
