She's Cute, She's Sweet, She's Definitely Sassy And She's Doing It 'cause She Feels Like It"

ALEXA is bringing it to the radio, your IPod and a dance floor near you with the global launch of her debut single "CAUSE WE FEEL LIKE IT", December 3, 2012.



ALEXA officially broke onto the scene summer 2012 with her first single, "Cause We Feel Like It", when fashion designer Indashio (Winner of VH1's Glam God), overheard a sample of the song. Indashio immediately approached Alexa to be his "IT GIRL" and chose "Cause We Feel Like it" as the anthem for his Spring / Summer 2013 American Dream collection.



"Cause We Feel Like It", ALEXA's rebel yell, is representative of her summer before starting college and her leap into the music industry. "Cause We Feel Like It" is full of energy, a feel good vibe and guaranteed to bring the fun (the song features out of the box radio, electro house, dance electronica & dub step variations).



"I am so excited to release 'Cause We Feel Like It' to the public. Everyone who has heard it during the developmental stages gave such great feedback and positive energy. It has been a great experience and I look forward to the next steps!!" ALEXA.



"ALEXA's journey toward success has begun; she's proven herself a winner in all areas tasked. She rises to every occasion and meets her challenges with grace, enthusiasm and an unrelenting attitude to win......" states Tony Prendatt-Carter. "As a 35 year music industry veteran I've worked extensively with continuing & developing talent, accruing 5 Grammy Award nominations and 3 wins as an engineer & producer including 2 for Album of the Year. I take great pride in scouting, recruiting and developing gifted young people. Alexa is one of those gifts - I am very excited about Alexa and her potential for world acceptance and success......."



Produced by Pavel Bez, Team Whooopiii and 3x Grammy Producer Tony Prendatt-Carter, "Cause We Feel Like It" will be available digitally through itunes and other digital music outlets.

New Release By Ariana "You're Not Alone" Is Out Now

The time is here for the new release by Ariana "You're Not Alone" on Soundcloud http://soundcloud.com/arianaofficial/youre-not-alone

After taking a few years off, multi-platinum recording artist Ariana is set to release her new single "You're Not Alone" in an unexpected new genre for the soulful Russian American vocalist, whose hits included power ballads "Under the Spanish Sky" and "I'll Do it All Again".

"Taking time off was the best choice I could've made, because now I'm ready to dive head first into my musical passion -- the world of EDM. It's been an amazing journey, and I'm finally ready to share it with my patient and loyal fans all over the world!" says Ariana of her return to music. Her new single "You're Not Alone" is a delectable mix of vocal progressive house and dubstep with a hint of her current influences, Nadia Ali, Medina, and Kaskade. "Typically, in EDM, the focus is on the DJ and the vocals are like a complementary accessory to the song. I'd like to help change that, and bring the focus back to the singer and create a harmonious marriage, if you will, between the two sides. I think it could really be something glorious."

In terms of her plans, Ariana doesn't plan to only focus on her own project. "Because I've been in the music business for so many years, I always saw myself developing and producing talent as well as my own music. This is why I try to surround myself with as much young talent as possible -- because that's where the future of music is at. Jack Wilson, who co-wrote and co-produced my new single is a rising star...you can quote me on that!" Judging by the buzz her new track is creating -- we think so too.

You can follow Ariana's progress on Twitter: @Arianaisback, or her website: www.arianaofficial.com."

Bomber Announces His Debut Single!

SoundCloud Link

With a successful promotional campaign Bomber has been creating the right kind of attention, and literally has exploded. With his own style that consists of infectious pop melody and awesome hip-hop beats. Adrian Sykes at EMI had to comment, “He has success written all over him!” He has been featured on the online publication NewQuod and has started turning heads already. Announced today is Bomber’s debut single Amazing, the track will be released on the 28th October.

Bomber started his journey with the release of ‘On My Way,’ which features the producer on vocals and has brought Bomber a good amount of new fans. The new track Amazing is set to be the song of the dance floors with a catchy beat, a brilliant dance floor smash to chase away the winter blues. The beat was produced by Tyler Smith of Tyler Smith Productions and features a 90s style piano mixed with an upbeat synth.

Bomber has always had a flare for music from such a young age. He grew up in North London with his Jamaican mother and his older siblings. Music was always playing and smooth reggae beats were definitely the catch of the day. At a young age when Bomber aka Kirk Edwards first got into MCing he used to attend MC battles and was even featured on ‘Heat FM.’

Bomber has been signed but the label he was signed to went into liquidation leaving him unsigned, but now he has a new management and a great team behind him to bring his music to the UK’s ears, this has been dubbed his year. Already he has performed with the likes of Chipmunk another British rapper and also completed a University Tour which spread like wild fire. To date though Bomber also managed to bag himself a space at this year’s Surface Festival and scored the most points EVER in their competition.

With his first debut single planned to be released on the 28th October, it’s time to give him the spotlight and watch him shine as Amazing hits the dancefloors…

Female Fronted Le Reverie Receive Reviews On Their Long-Awaited Debut CD!

Critics are talking about Female-Fronted Goth Rock Metal Band Le Reverie and the release of their long awaited debut album, “Dark Symphony.” This 12-Song CD is an amazing combination of Symphony, Goth Rock, Metal and Progressive Rock.

Scott Thomas of Cashbox Magazine says: “Le Reverie is a band from LA. w/ angelic-vocalist Allie Jorgen at the helm. If you are into progressive metal bands to today's dynamic bands ala Evanescence, then you have to look no further. Each song on this album, 'EPIC'!!!" Are you ready to take a symphonic journey? If so, there is no looking back. This is a must have in your prog-metal music collection!”

Randy Patterson from Boomerocity.com Magazine says: “Dark Symphony is an incredible merging of Goth, Prog, and Metal with some very healthy doses of Symphonic bliss. Le Reverie will definitely continue on an upward trajectory that the band should be quite thrilled about. Dark Symphony the proggy/gothy title cut is rich in superbly crafted melodies and vocals. This number will get in your head and stay there for days.”

NYC Based Singer/Songwriter GANDHI Debuts New Single And Music Video: "Anjali"

GANDHI, the melancholic Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter embraces his family name and works to distinguish it to represent “GANDHI” the artist. Later this month, GANDHI will debut the song and music video for his compelling new single, “Anjali.”

Working closely with his manager and honoring both their interests of sharing personal & meaningful stories through media, it was agreed that the concept of the video was to simply source GANDHI’s personal inspiration behind the song itself; the desire to communicate hope for an intimate and meaningful relationship with a lover. GANDHI wanted to present a concept where “the meaning” of the song/video is relatable to persons of any ethnic background, while at the same time, present it in a way that actually honors his own ethnic personal experience as a first generation American.

Inspired by all the great American and British singer/songwriters from just about every decade, this writer, producer and performer beckons his listeners on a journey to new worlds and alternate possibilities by blending classic Rock & Roll riffs, Folk melodies and Electronica music. On stage, he is surrounded by a rotating all-star cast of New York musicians proficient in just about every instrument. After a decade of penning songs and finding his true songwriting voice, GANDHI is set to unleash his sounds and stories to the world and invites listeners to join in for the ride with the release of “Anjali.”

The song was produced and arranged by William Moses with instrumentation by Vin Scialla. Both the single and its accompanying music video will be released on Sept. 25, 2012 on iTunes and YouTube, respectively, followed with another single release in the winter and an EP in early 2013.
