&quot;Thanks to Jeremy Pilon, an indie artist who reached out to us at YouTube, we now have <a href="http://www.paxstereo.tv/artist_pages/indie_canada.htm" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="Indie Canada Tv"> Indie Canada Tv </a>, and it is entirely staffed by artists from Canada,&quot; says Pax Stereo CEO, Mario Hemsley.

So impressed was the Pax Stereo CEO, that he built Indie Canada Tv and offered Pilon the helm. Since then it has been full steam ahead and no looking back.

&quot;It doesn&#039;t take me long to recognize something special, and Jeremy definitely stood out. He was so motivated and brought a special energy.&quot; Mario likes to simply point to fate.  &quot;We just had to link our efforts in some kind of way.&quot; Mario encouraged Jeremy to take on the channel, pointing out the potential benefits to Jeremy&#039;s new label and the indie artists he wants so much to support. &quot;I liked the idea from the beginning. Pax Stereo began as an indie music label, and artists are dear to our heart. We showcase many indie artists on our channels, and plan for a whole lot more.&quot; By serving as the Indie Canada Tv program director, Jeremy has full control over the playlist, and is encouraged to feature and promote himself and other indies as he sees fit. &quot;We believe in putting good people in control and letting them drive the bus.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) April 2, 2008 -- Over a dozen well known recording artists have entered into agreements to add their own personal archived recordings to the <a href="http://www.WolfgangsVault.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="live music archive">Wolfgang&#039;s Vault</a> archive under an innovative, artist friendly distribution arrangement with the popular music site.   

Wolfgang&#039;s Vault has developed an online platform which provides opportunity for partner artists to be paid for the sale of their music in an unusually transparent and quick reconciliation method.   Artists are proactively and independently able to release and market previously unavailable live concert recordings for download to the Wolfgang&#039;s Vault music fan community.   

Among the list of successful artists recently partnered with Wolfgang&#039;s Vault:  The Ramones, Kristin Hersh of legendary indie rock band The Throwing Muses, Wayne Kramer of MC5 fame, Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, The Tubes, The Persuasions, Orleans, and Pousette Dart.  These concerts are scheduled for release on Wolfgang&#039;s Vault over the coming months.

George Howard, former President of Rykodisc is currently involved with artist relations for the site, and initiated many of the agreements.  He says:   &quot;Wolfgang&#039;s Vault is uniquely positioned to provide revenue streams, distribution channels, and awareness for artists and labels willing to embrace the new realities of the music business.  While artists can no longer rely on labels to further their careers, a forward-thinking company like Wolfgang&#039;s Vault represents a fantastic strategic partnership opportunity.&quot;

Eric Johnson, President and COO of Wolfgang&#039;s Vault comments: &quot;We believe we have created a unique resource for the enjoyment and distribution of live music.  We couldn&#039;t be more excited about the artists we have partnered with and look forward to announcing more in the near term.&quot;

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Columbus, OH (PRWEB) February 20, 2008 -- Reincarnation is it real? Leisa Coffman, author of new E-Book &quot;Egyptian Memories&quot; thinks so though she had not always believed in it however, through a personal life changing experience in 2003 she began embracing the belief.

Leisa tells a spell bounding love story of soulmates living in the Ancient Egyptian Era. She does not consider herself to be the typical author of a book, she says, &quot;I am a creative writer, which is writing that goes outside the boundaries of standard and professional form.&quot; She continues,  &quot;A past life regression therapist suggested for me to start creative writing because it is the way I release my emotions.&quot;  

Leisa feels it is important for her to share her writings in hopes that it will help people to better understand reincarnation and its purpose. Her writing naturally draws in the reader without any expectations. She provokes thought toward spirituality and life&#039;s choices. 

Carnate means &quot;of flesh,&quot; and reincarnate means to &quot;reenter the flesh.&quot; Leisa states, &quot;Once I started believing in reincarnation, I felt like one of my purposes was to begin writing about it in books and songs.&quot; Leisa also is a singer/songwriter and wrote a song in companion with the book also entitled &quot;Egyptian Memories&quot; and is available at iTunes. 

She further explains, &quot;Many people that begin believing in reincarnation a lot of times have a fear of talking about it because it is not a belief that is mainstream here in the United States. Once you research it and understand it, it makes complete and total sense. Having the belief gives you a level of understanding that puts your life into perspective. Kabbalists, Buddhists and Hindus teach reincarnation in their respective faiths, so one should not quickly disregard it.&quot; Leisa continues, &quot;If  reincarnation is not taught in ones religion, it usually takes a personal experience for someone to begin believing in it, or at least looking into it. That is how it happened for me. If  I can at least cause a person to start thinking about the possibilities, then that alone could begin positive changes in their lives.&quot;  

Leisa&#039;s book is available electronically with a free chapter download at <a href="http://www.egyptianmemories.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">http://www.egyptianmemories.com</a>. The complete book can be purchased for $4.95. 

Also available are important reincarnation research links as well as an interactive online quiz. The quiz has particular questions that could help others see that this natural phenomenon exists.  &quot;The online quiz I have on the website, is another way I wanted to provoke thought,&quot; Leisa concludes.

The book is published by Leisa&#039;s new E-Book publishing company, Leisa Books. Her idea is to publish other books relative to the topic. <a href="http://www.leisabooks.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">http://www.leisabooks.com</a>.

&quot;We chose the VMW and the VVAF because they do a remarkable job of helping our veterans, especially the modern day veterans,&quot; states Mia Global owner and producer Dan D&#039;Alio. Dan adds, &quot;The spirit of the song, which was influenced by the war on terror, brings out the emotional struggle that everyone deals with when in any military conflict.&quot;

As the first reviews of &quot;Nation&#039;s Prayer&quot; are being posted on iTunes it is clear that the song&#039;s message is hitting home to the average American. You only had to be alive during 9-11 or watch the nightly news to understand that this song speaks to all Americans. 

Mia Global Publishing LLC also plans on keeping the public informed of the amount of song downloads and money donated to the VVAF and VMW by publishing reports on its web site as they become available from iTunes. &quot;I want people to be aware of the collective value of their contributions on an ongoing basis,&quot; states Dan.

Keith King, President of the VVAF, was instrumental in securing this project for the VVAF, along with Julie Mock, President of the Veterans of Modern Warfare. 

The song is for sale on iTunes today with its music video to follow. To Purchase the song or for more information go to <a href="http://www.nationsprayer.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.nationsprayer.com</a>.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Carlsbad, CA (PRWEB) February 19, 2008 -- D &#38; G Solutions, LLC a partnership headed by 23year-old inventor Erik Groset and co-founded by Robin DeFay, is proud to announce the LiveSpeakR&#8482; (<a href="http://www.LiveSpeakR.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.LiveSpeakR.com</a>), an ultra-portable speaker system and boombox for the iPhone.  

This amazing new speaker system features a set of speakers that fold-up and store conveniently behind the iPhone when they are not in use allowing for maximum portability.  When the unit is stored (or hidden) it piggy-backs on the iPhone making it only slightly thicker than the actual iPhone. The unique style of the LiveSpeakR&#8482; is visually stunning featuring beautiful curves inspired by modern art and design.  

But, the truly impressive functionality of the LiveSpeakR&#8482; is what makes this product shine above the competition.  The speakers expand, contract, and rotate to work with both portrait and landscape modes.  Behind the LiveSpeakR&#8482; unit is a stand to hold the speakers up at multiple viewing angles.  Either 2 AAA batteries or an AC-adapter powers the unit.  High quality speakers are shielded from radio frequency interference, which allows the iPhone to operate without going into airplane mode and gives it the ability to still receive calls.  The LiveSpeakR&#8482; can also function as a speaker phone, allowing users increased conference call capability.  These are just a few of the awesome features of the LiveSpeakR&#8482;.

Inventor Erik Groset, whom was recently added to the Young Inventors International Hall of Fame (<a href="http://www.younginventors.org" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.younginventors.org</a>) commented on his invention, &quot;I&#039;m very proud of the LiveSpeakR I believe it could be a perfect accessory for everyone&#039;s iPhone.

He continued, that if the right partner was found, the LiveSpeakR&#8482; could be available as early as Summer 2008.  It should also be noted that the LiveSpeakR&#8482; is backwards compatible with older generation players as well as potential future media players.

                        <itunes:subtitle>New iPhone Speaker System, the LiveSpeakR&#8482; is Gearing Up to Rock </itunes:subtitle>
                        <itunes:summary><![CDATA[Carlsbad, CA (PRWEB) February 19, 2008 -- D &#38; G Solutions, LLC a partnership headed by 23year-old inventor Erik Groset and co-founded by Robin DeFay, is proud to announce the LiveSpeakR&#8482; (<a href="http://www.LiveSpeakR.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.LiveSpeakR.com</a>), an ultra-portable speaker system and boombox for the iPhone.  

This amazing new speaker system features a set of speakers that fold-up and store conveniently behind the iPhone when they are not in use allowing for maximum portability.  When the unit is stored (or hidden) it piggy-backs on the iPhone making it only slightly thicker than the actual iPhone. The unique style of the LiveSpeakR&#8482; is visually stunning featuring beautiful curves inspired by modern art and design.  

But, the truly impressive functionality of the LiveSpeakR&#8482; is what makes this product shine above the competition.  The speakers expand, contract, and rotate to work with both portrait and landscape modes.  Behind the LiveSpeakR&#8482; unit is a stand to hold the speakers up at multiple viewing angles.  Either 2 AAA batteries or an AC-adapter powers the unit.  High quality speakers are shielded from radio frequency interference, which allows the iPhone to operate without going into airplane mode and gives it the ability to still receive calls.  The LiveSpeakR&#8482; can also function as a speaker phone, allowing users increased conference call capability.  These are just a few of the awesome features of the LiveSpeakR&#8482;.

Considered the perfect companion to the current network of over 350 micro-niche robot &quot;AutoChannels&quot;, these international widgets offer high-quality videos from around the world in a variety of languages. Competition between human-powered TV and robot widgets is expected to increase. [PRWeb Jan 21, 2008]</description>

After building a number of Internet television networks using &quot;robot autochannel&quot; search technology, Pax Stereo Tv has continued their expansion by adding human-powered widget guides to search and access online video. Staffed by a global team of editors who are constantly categorizing and filtering content, these state-of-the-art human-powered elements are provided by developer, WeShow.



WeShow (<a href="http://www.weshow.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="WeShow.com"><a href="http://www.WeShow.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.WeShow.com</a></a>) is part of the current video revolution occurring on the web, and offers a unique portfolio of video widgets customized for a variety of countries and cultures. By providing &quot;a human-powered entertainment guide&quot;, WeShow simplifies the process of finding and viewing your favorite videos and also adds a human touch. But the WeShow widgets allow for much more than a great viewing experience. Pax Stereo Director of Marketing and Promotion, Victor Allen explains. &quot;WeShow allows Pax Stereo Tv expansion into international territory, and because of them we are now offering programming for consumers in Germany, France, Spain, United Kingdom and Brazil.&quot;  CEO Mario Hemsley agrees. &quot;While we are not affiliated with WeShow, and the same widgets we use are available to all, we still feel that because of the WeShow widget we are able to offer many of our international visitors a unique experience in their own language. The benefits are obvious.&quot; 

The Human-Powered Tv page (<a href="http://www.paxstereo.tv/human-poweredtv.htm" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="Human-Powered TV @ Pax Stereo Tv"><a href="http://www.paxstereo.tv/human-poweredtv.htm" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.paxstereo.tv/human-poweredtv.htm</a></a>) has full information and a drop down menu of video playlists gathered from the most popular video sites, such as YouTube, Metacafe, Google, MySpace, Dailymotion, and more.

After working in an almost exclusively virtual reality, and building a competent collection of virtual staff, adding these new human-powered elements can be unsettling to some. Mario is quick to dispel rumors of infighting between members of the virtual staff. &quot;Any change can be perceived as threatening, but we are doing everything to ensure a smooth transition of services. Our virtual staff is still our backbone, and continues as our main source of Internet television programming.&quot; Further comments from staff are encouraged, and will be made available on the website.  Victor adds, &quot;virtual or real, human-powered or robots, it&#039;s all good to us and great for the consumer.&quot; 

Pax Stereo Tv is still offering complimentary services to those affected by the current Writers&#039; Strike.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Los Angeles, CA (Billboard Publicity Wire) January 7, 2008 -- One of music&#039;s most distinctive voices returns January 29 with a remarkable new CD. Carmen Lundy, renowned for her extraordinary vocal prowess and songwriting skill, is back with her 10th release -- Come Home, from Afrasia Productions.


                  
The culmination of her 30-year career, Come Home is Lundy&#039;s emotional tribute to her hometown of Miami, where her large and extended family still resides. All the paintings on the CD are Lundy originals, and &quot;Family Portrait&quot;, which graces the cover of the CD, beautifully and eloquently speaks to the honesty, harmony and strength of family. On this album, Lundy paints sonic portraits with the kind of brushstrokes that can only be felt from the inside out.

Recorded by top engineer Joe Ferla (whose work includes John Mayer, David Sanborn, Bill Frissell, Betty Carter and many others), Come Home features the extraordinary talents of pianist Geri Allen, who joined Lundy&#039;s stellar band (Anthony Wonsey on piano, brother Curtis Lundy on bass, Jason Evan Brown on drums, Mayra Casales on percussion, Lage Lund on guitar) for the sessions. 
                                  
Says Lundy, &quot;Making this record was about finding my own voice. Not a jazz voice, but a universal voice. I found my voice and I&#039;ve accomplished everything I&#039;ve ever wanted to musically, on Come Home.&quot;
Come Home will be available January 29 at <a href="http://www.carmenlundy.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.carmenlundy.com</a> , Lundy&#039;s MySpace site (<a href="http://www.myspace.com/carmenlundy" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.myspace.com/carmenlundy</a>), Amazon.com and all major digital download sites (including itunes.com, rhapsody.com and barnesandnoble.com) Carmen Lundy&#039;s catalog can also be found at top music retailers throughout North America.

About Carmen Lundy
Acclaimed singer, composer, painter and actress, Carmen Lundy continues to amaze. Jazz Times said it best in their 2006 profile:

Carmen Lundy, as beautiful inside as out, has accomplished the near impossible for a jazz singer by maintaining a solid, successful, three-decade career while focusing largely on original, self-penned material.

Her versatility and vocal range has led to comparisons with such diverse and brilliant singers as Aretha Franklin, Sarah Vaughan, Betty Carter, and Ella Fitzgerald. Stretching out beyond the studio and concert stage, Lundy has played the lead role in Duke Ellington&#039;s Sophisticated Lady stage production, and portrayed Billie Holiday in Lawrence Holder&#039;s off-Broadway production They Were All Gardenias.

Top jazz critics around the globe have lauded her work. Here&#039;s a small sampling:

&quot;An authentic jazz singer. She&#039;s got it all.&quot; -- Gary Giddins, The Village Voice 
                             
&quot;Catch Carmen. In a world of pretenders, she&#039;s a genuine jazz singer.&quot; -- Jack  Massarik, London Evening Standard

&quot;Lundy&#039;s performance was the product of talent that has ripened fully. Her far-ranging, fluidly mobile voice roved through and around the melodies, and her innate sense of theatricality illuminated every layer of drama in her story-driven songs.&quot; -- Don Heckman, Los Angeles Times

&quot;Listening to Carmen Lundy &#039;live&#039; on Jazz and the New Songbook: Live at the Madrid is truly a remarkable experience and solidifies the adage that she is in a class all her own&#8230;a great mix of ballads, straight-ahead jazz, Latin, fusion and funk that showcases Carmen Lundy&#039;s amazing voice and compositional integrity. Highly recommended.&quot;   -- Allmusic.com 4 &#189; star review

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) September 27, 2007 -- With the ever-changing audience of any social network (from traditional teens and college students to forty-something business executives), its popularity and usefulness can change drastically and quickly, meaning a popular social network of today may have little networking value for some markets tomorrow. Cosmosing (<a href="http://www.Cosmosing.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.Cosmosing.com</a>) is the first social network catering to all user markets, by offering a comprehensive set of social media and Web 2.0 tools which members can use independently of each other, while still maintaining a single login identity and personal area to manage their tools.

&quot;What we do,&quot; says JC Carvill, creator of Cosmosing.com, &quot;is make memberships at multiple social media sites unnecessary. Our members don&#039;t need to sign up for an account with a free blog host, another account with a photo hosting site, one for social bookmarking like Del.icio.us, and one to submit and rate news stories like Digg or Netscape. By becoming a member of the Cosmosing network, members can host 10,000 photos, they&#039;ll soon be able to run their own free blog, they can share their social bookmarks, and more, all from one account management area, with just one set of login details, and by having to visit only one site.&quot;

With all of the traditional social networking functions familiar to users of sites like Myspace or Facebook available at Cosmosing, it may seem like there has to be a line drawn between its viability for youth social interaction or business networking, like with other networks on the market. However, Cosmosing offers services on more of an a la carte basis to members, allowing them to use only the site features relevant to their needs, while ignoring those they don&#039;t want. For example, a professional wanting to network with colleagues can do so without having to be subjected to adolescent fads, and younger users can ignore more business-oriented tools such as blogs and social bookmarking features while still sharing photos, playing games live online with other members, and more.

&quot;The best part about Cosmosing,&quot; says Carvill, &quot;is that we&#039;re able to grow and integrate new tools quickly, so we can constantly adapt to the changing needs of all of our users, no matter why they use the site. The integration also makes any new tool instantly available to members without any further registration process. We don&#039;t anticipate Cosmosing to be just another small social network that will vanish from the Web in a few years. With our ability to constantly adapt the site and tools to a changing market compared to the large, often slow-to-adapt, sites in the social networking industry, we&#039;re confident that Cosmosing has the potential to be a long term social media solution for businesses and individuals alike.&quot;

About Cosmosing:
Cosmosing.com is an interactive collection of social media features designed for everyone from the most &quot;in tune&quot; teens to the savviest of business users. The site is working to change the traditional social networking scene by offering the widest selection of social media and Web 2.0 features from blogs to social bookmark sharing in a manner that lets users choose and use only the features appropriate for their specific needs. Cosmosing is seeking to provide entertainment, quality, news and humor in the daily lives of people all over the world, all without forcing unwanted features.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[New York, NY (PRWEB) September 9, 2007 -- Joseph A. Peragine is a musician who is delivering a positive message about his journey with Schizophrenia. From pain and self-medication to acceptance and purpose, Joseph A. Peragine has released two discographies titled &quot;The Acoustic Diaries&quot; and &quot;Self Medication...Poems of Alienation.&quot; 

About Joseph A. Peragine:
Joseph A. Peragine (<a href="http://www.josephaperagine.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank">www.josephaperagine.com</a>) is an independent experimental solo artist based out of Cincinnati OH.  Born in 1981, Joseph has been writing, singing, and playing instruments since the age of 14. He writes music about his personal struggles with Paranoid Schizophrenia.  Joseph&#039;s journey with Schizophrenia started around the age of fifteen when he experienced episodes of intense paranoia, delusions, and unusual and harmful behaviors. 

As a young adult, after overcoming many obstacles, Joseph hopes to dispel the negative stereotypes of Schizophrenia and deliver an overall positive message of hope through music. Joseph&#039;s biography is detailed in a poignant video which can be viewed on his Electronic Press Kit or website. In the video, Joseph states, &quot;This is me. I am turning my life around and in a lot of ways I&#039;m not so different from you.&quot; 

About the Music of Joseph Peragine:
The compositions of Joseph A. Peragine are a blend of unforgettable sound-landscapes, emotionally charged and meaningful.  Joseph convincingly communicates his battle with Schizophrenia. 

In his first solo album, The Acoustic Diaries, Joseph includes 17-tracks of music along with an autobiographical 24 page booklet. The CD displays Joseph&#039;s innovative approach to acoustic guitar, calm and peaceful in contrast to his chaotic world. He mixes the guitar with a variety of sound samplings. His lyrics are raw, delivered by a voice that is somber and mellow. The Acoustic Diaries opens new doors of perception to your average listener. It is an eight-year story told in a journal of acoustic songs, tied together with a collage of poetry, instrumental music, and everyday noise. The music transcends into audio scenery that gives the listener a mental picture of this young man&#039;s journey.  

His second release &quot;Self Medication&#8230;Poems of Alienation&quot; is a collection of spoken word material that Joseph wrote during the darker years of his struggle. This album is a self-reflective, deeper and darker look at the history of his illness and experiences.

About Joseph&#039;s struggle with Schizophrenia:
In the beginning, Joseph experienced intense paranoia, delusions of grandeur, hearing voices, seeing and interacting with non-existent people and objects, and many other types of paranoid hallucinations and delusions. Unfortunately, Joseph was unaware that he had an illness and went to great lengths of self- medication. Joseph states, &quot;I did lots of negative things such as an over consumption of drugs, cutting, burning, and hitting myself all the way to driving myself over 100mph with no seatbelt from the highway straight into another car, then straight into the woods. I was living my life in a constant, overwhelming fear.&quot; 

On a positive note, Joseph is now a long way from the self-destructive days of Schizophrenia. He is on a positive, peaceful, and healthy path. In the most recent years of his life, Joseph is expressing himself through positive and productive venues like music and performance.  

About  Schizophrenia:
Schizophrenia  is one of the most damaging of all mental disorders as it causes its victims to lose touch with reality.... To read the press release in full goto http://www.prweb.com/releases/2007/9/prweb552104.htm]]></content:encoded>

As a young adult, after overcoming many obstacles, Joseph hopes to dispel the negative stereotypes of Schizophrenia and deliver an overall positive message of hope through music. Joseph&#039;s biography is detailed in a poignant video which can be viewed on his Electronic Press Kit or website. In the video, Joseph states, &quot;This is me. I am turning my life around and in a lot of ways I&#039;m not so different from you.&quot;
