We are proud to be working with such talented and energetic musicians. Their recent accomplishments are many: currently at number 7 on the CMJ hip-hop charts; an excellent review in Urb Magazine; their first single as the #1 most added ;their current release was #2 most added for two weeks in a row. Bound by a love of music and a drive to produce sophisticated, spiritually minded Hip-Hop, The Procussions is a group of emcee-musicians who hail from Colorado. The Procussions formed in late 1990s when members of two rival b-boy crews decided to squash beef and make changes in the Colorado music scene. Five years later, they continue to pursue their mission of spreading life- affirming music and shattering Hip-Hip stereotypes. They know where they're form, and always speak up for Colorado's vibrant, multicultural music scene. "Colorado is where we're from and Colorado is what we represent!" - E What is INDIEgo? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ INDIEgo was started in 1991 by a group of music industry professionals who used their experience and industry knowledge to create a different kind of promotion and distribution company.

Check out the new face of INDIEgo at www.indiego.com. INDIEgo Announces Buzz Builder ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Buzz. Everyone wants it. Most don't have it. How do you get buzz? In most cases it starts with a great sounding CD backed up by an amazing live show. Sometimes that's enough; but most of the time it takes some smart publicity work as well. The most difficult part of generating buzz for a new project is igniting that first spark of interest in the artist and their music. For new artists, this can be a daunting task. Enter Buzz Builder. INDIEgo has created an affordable way for emerging artists to kick-start their press kit and begin the process of making regional and national opinion leaders aware of them and their music. It's called Buzz Builder. INDIEgo's Buzz Builder service is an intense, 6-week publicity campaign designed to get reviews, articles, and industry feedback for musicians. In the first 2 months of operation, Buzz Builder has had incredible results and received a large amount of positive feedback from Industry affiliates. If you know someone who might be a good fit for this service or would like additional information, give us a buzz at 888.355.9387. <font color="#FFFFFF">Find out more....</font> >> http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=rmzf7xn6.4c67xxn6.dgafyxn6.jocomxn6.13769&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.indiego.com%2Fmodules.php%3Fop%3Dmodload%26name%3DNews%26file%3Darticle%26sid%3D155 Current Clients ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <li>The Brad Upton Quartet</li> <li>Great Girls Blouse</li> <li>Laibach - Mute Records</li> <li>Berlin Project - Orange Peal Records</li> <li>Brass Roots - Accurate Records</li> <li>My Secret Service</li> <li>Lovedrug</li> <li>Etherglow</li> <li>Stayte</li> <li>Brendan McKinney</li> <li>Transcendence</li> <li>Procussions</li> <li>GESTALT - Dark Orchid, Elan, eROTic</li> INDIEgo partners with Laibach for retail promotion ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We are finisRecords, home of such artists as Moby and Depeche Mode. The campaign was for Laibach, a band that has been doing their kind of Industrial since before the term was coined. INDIEgo is proud to announce that we have received intense interest from stores across the country that are now carrying WAT as a result of our efforts. On WAT Laibach accelerate once more, fuelled by the contradictions and controversies of a 23-year history, dragging audiences into their own temporal zone, conjuring up the normally hidden forces supporting the regimes that govern our reality. Laibach suspend the visibly disintegrating global rule of "business as usual". Nothing and no one is spared interrogation by Laibach and the effects of its interventions are irreversible. WAT interrogates both Laibach's own history and the desires and projections of its audiences. On November 14th Laibach held a concert at Studio VIBA Film in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Further appearances are planned in following cities: - Prague, Czech Republic (November 28th) - Zagreb, Croatia (December 13th) - Nova Gorica, Slovenia (December 19th) <font color="#FFFFFF">Find out more....</font> >> http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=rmzf7xn6.4c67xxn6.egafyxn6.jocomxn6.13769&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.laibach.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quick Links... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ INDIEgo Website >> http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=rmzf7xn6.4c67xxn6.4fafyxn6.jocomxn6.13769&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.indiego.com <font color="#FFFFFF">Interested in being a part of the Scout Team?</font> >> http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=rmzf7xn6.4c67xxn6.agafyxn6.jocomxn6.13769&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.indiego.com%2Fmodules.php%3Fop%3Dmodload%26name%3DNews%26file%3Darticle%26sid%3D189 <font color="#FFFFFF">Synergy Distribution</font> >> http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=rmzf7xn6.4c67xxn6.bgafyxn6.jocomxn6.13769&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.synergydistribution.com%2F <font color="#FFFFFF">TouchStand - The Future of Retail</font> >> http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=rmzf7xn6.4c67xxn6.cgafyxn6.jocomxn6.13769&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.touchstand.com%2F ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ email: casey@indiego.com voice: 303-532-2473 web: http://www.indiego.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This email was sent to www-validator@w3.org, by Indiego.
