View Ballerina Black's EPK

Ballerina Black is a band that has quickly made a name for themselves on the L.A. scene since they formed in late 2007. A blend of 80s mope rock and early Factory Records ambience sans the elitism, the Los Angeles trio consists of singer/songwriter Bobby Moynahan, bassist Esli Sugich and drummer Jeff Kite. Although Moynahan is the primary songwriter, the band’s sound is very much a product of each individual band members’ eclectic musical tastes. The result is pop music with a grunge-era aesthetic. Driven by their raucous and inspired live performances, they have been embraced by the ever-evolving and often fickle patronage of the L.A. music scene, spawning new fans by the droves at every stop.

I'll do my best to tell you about myself but i kinda hate talking about myself. Well im not sure when i first got into making music, it kinda just hit me one day. I have always loved music who does'nt?

I felt that need to take it much further then that, and at the time my main music of interest was simply "Composers" such as Vangelis, Hans Zimmer, Danny Elfman. They all have inspired me to start making music and no matter how hard i try i cant shake the style they have injected into me. Which i think is a great thing, its what makes my music unique. I like to take this and mix it with my other favorite artists, portishead, tricky, massive attack and so on. I use mainly keyboards, synths, turntables and the computer to make all my music. Im still looking for someone i can get to do vocals on a permanant basis.

Omnifarious is only made up of 1 composer and thats me, i distribute my music under Omnifarious because of its meaning.

adj : of all varieties or forms or kinds

This best represents my music. However for a long time i was known as "Hades" and well, old habits die hard so if you see hades on any of my songs or album covers its Omnifarious. I do plan on spending time to re-do all my album covers and mp3 tags so soon nothing will say "hades" anymore.

Biography
From Grandpa I got my storytelling. His visits were rare, as he and grandma lived in St. Catherines Ontario, and we lived just outside Calgary, Alberta. They spoiled all 8 of us children (according to my dad) but the biggest gift Grandpa always gave us was to tell us bedtime stories of the “olden days”.

Grandpa’s stories usually involved exciting stuff like runaway teams of horses, shooting at wolves, or somebody getting body parts torn off. His tales were filled with gestures and sound effects. He really had a way of bringing them to life. And he listened when a kid told him a story. He made you feel your stories were important.

From Mom and Dad I got music. My Dad and my other Grandpa were both musicians. Grandpa Hubele (of whom I knew very little) was a very good organ player. My dad played fiddle in his early years, touring around southern Alberta with a country dance band. He and Mom would, very occasionally, play duets on fiddle and piano when we were little kids.

I can remember waiting til my parents went out. Since I was the oldest, I often babysat my brothers and sisters. I would sneak into Dad’s fiddle case to take out the fiddle and play it. Except I was always trying to make it sound like a guitar, and I played it like one.

We moved back and forth across the country, from Ontario to Alberta and back many times as I grew up. Dad kept trading up for jobs, and I was in a new school almost every year. I became a loner and a rebel. I turned to humor to make up for my small size. I’d find the biggest kid in class, figure out how to make him laugh, and I didn’t have to worry about the rest of the bullies. It pays to have friends in high places.

I believe I had an undiagnosed hearing problem caused by a trauma (now confirmed as a severe hearing loss). I never could quite understand the lyrics on the radio which was always on in our house, so I made up my own.

My earliest memories were of crossing the big empty fields which made up the neighborhoods of my youth, singing at the top of my lungs and making up words as I went along. My mom says she could pick me out of the flocks of kids coming home from school. I’d be waving my arms and singing to myself as I walked across the prairie.

I started writing songs in a serious way when I was 21 years old. A friend, who had been showing me how to play guitar, and I went out to live on the beach on Vancouver Island at Pacific Rim Park. I was picking away when a simple line kept repeating itself in my head. I wrote it down, and in ten minutes I had a song. It seemed to open flood gates, and for the next 2 or 3 years I wrote a song or two a week. I average about a song a month now. But, they are better songs.

Biography, page 2

To write successfully, I usually have to be alone, have all my chores done and time on my hands. Words and melody most often develop at the same time. It takes from 10 minutes to 1 hour to write a song. It takes me two weeks to learn it. I like to wrap a song around a good story line. They always come from my own experiences.

I was fascinated with the blues from the get-go. I came in through the back door. J.J. Cale, then Hot Tuna. Then B.B. King, Freddy King, and Muddy Waters.

When I heard Bonnie Raitt play slide guitar, I was gone. I had to learn how to do that. I followed her trail back to Mississippi Fred McDowell. “You want rock, you gonna have to put me in a rockin’ chair. I plays the straight and natural blues.”

I also paid attention to the songwriters, my favorites being Paul Simon, Harry Nillson, Willie Dixon, and Tom Waits.

My interest in jazz developed through my association with other musicians like Calgary’s late Chuck Tracy, a gruff, funny, kind of crazy lounge musician. He introduced me to Tom Waits, Mose Allison, and Fats Waller amongst others.

As well, it became a habit to listen to the great Alberta radio station CKUA on Saturdays. Bill Coull’s Jazz Show was a fifteen year course in ‘Everything You Should Know About Jazz’.

I also have a life-long addiction to comedy movies and comic books. One of my Dad’s jobs was as a projectionist in a small town. Once a week on Saturday night the local community hall was turned into a theatre. I was very young (3 years til 7 years old) but those old black and white 16mm movies of the Marx Bros, Chaplin, and W.C. Fields remain deep in my psyche.

I think this was a great influence on my writing. Most of my songs have a little humor and a strange twist to them.

I have worked as a laborer and heavy equipment operator and truck driver since leaving the University of Calgary after 4 years of unrelated courses and wandering interests. Previous to that, I had worked at the CPR as a ticket clerk. I began working at age 14 at the steel mill where my father worked. I did not graduate from high school.

I have written songs for 32 years. Recording began for me in 1978 with the Acme Sausage Company with Holger Petersen broadcast on CKUA. Since then, I have been on countless radio and tv programs. I have recorded 6 albums of original material, and I just finished recording my demo for the 7th, and most exciting, CD - ‘Down In Davis Bay’.

SHERY: "LOVE IS A GHOST"

Shery is a new, passionate singer/songwriter, gifted with a voice that will forever steal your heart. She writes and performs inspired, unique songs that transcend the barriers of language.

Through her very own brand of melodic pop and pop/rock, Shery creates a true world of FEELING, celebrating the shadows, the agonies of love.

Shery was born in Guatemala, the country of Ricardo Arjona, the morning of an August 18, under the sign of Leo.

Her first album, "El Amor es un Fantasma" ("Love is a Ghost"), is expected for Spring 2007.

The album takes name from her first single, a delicious song that remained for 26 straight weeks in the Guatemalan Top 40, then climbing #1 as the most requested pop song nationwide -- the first time ever for a local female artist. You download the song for FREE at www.shery.net or www.myspace.com/shery1

Without real promotion, no record label, and no money, her debut concert (Guatemala, June 2005), was an absolute sellout.

What was intended to be an intimate night just for a small circle of close friends, became a totally crowded venue, enchanted with the passion of a young soul, brave enough to climb on stage and sing her heart out, performing in public for the first time songs she had written not for the public, but "to exorcize my own shadows", as she remarked later.

When after the show almost one out of every two people walked out with Shery's first single on hand (a quality home-made CD commissioned at the very last minute), it was obvious something unique had taken life that evening.

During her first 18 months of career, Shery has been a finalist in both the John Lennon Songwriting Contest (among 15,000 entries from all over the world) and the Unisong International Songwriting Competition. She has won a medal in the World Championship of the Performing Arts, in Los Angeles, California.

Shery has been a featured artist in all major T.V. shows in Guatemala, including Nuestro Mundo Joven, Alo Que Tal America, Con Buena Onda, Nuestro Mundo por la Mañana, Telediario, Cuestion de Minutos, Viva la Mañana and El Bingoton Millonario, and has received intense coverage from magazines and newspapers such as Siglo XXI, Prensa Libre, Nuestro Diario, Al Dia and Gee Magazine.

Azteca America described her as the "New voice from Guatemala to sweeten the world".

She has been interviewed by the leading national and local radio stations, such as Radio Mia, Exa FM, Red Deportiva, Doble Via, Radio Punto, Radio 10, Infinita, Yosi Sideral, Tropicalida, Extrema, Alfa 97.3, Galaxia, TGW La Voz de Guatemala, and was the first-ever pop artist to be interviewed by Radio Faro Cultural, the country's leading classical station.

In September 2005 Shery did her first US appearance in Washington D.C., invited by the Guatemalan Embassy.

She has performed in numerous venues, alone and with other artists, including some of the most important scenarios in her country, such as La Gala de la Cancion, Teleton, Escenarios, Mundo Navideño, Feria Nacional, and Radioteleton.

Shery has shared stage with Latin superstars the likes of Christian Castro and Manuel Mijares, as well as with local legends such as Malacates Trebol Shop, Viento en Contra, Aurum, and Radio Viejo.

Her second single, an irresistible ballad titled "Me Converti en Roca" ("I Becane a Rock"), premiered in February 2006 by Radio Mia 93.7, and has since then received intense airplay in radio stations across the country.

In August 2006 the song climbed to #1 position nationwide, while successfully making the leap from Contemporary Hit Radio to other formats (on its original version, not remixed), such as Tropical and other upbeat genres.

In September 2006 "Me Converti en Roca" was voted by the users of GarageBand.com (the largest independent band portal on the Internet) as the "#1 Best Love Song, overall, all time". The site also gave Shery awards such as "#1 Best Female Vocals in Latin, all-time", "Best Melody", "Most Original Song" and "Best Production".

Directed and produced by Daniel Rene (former member of the legendary Latin Pop band Menudo/MDO), the video of "Me Converti en Roca" was filmed in Miami, Florida, and will start to air in January 2007.

When she is not on stage singing, Shery is writing, producing or recording. She dreams on a world in peace, where no children has to grow-up in hunger, and where human kind has finally learned to live in harmony with nature.

•  super ultra fantasico

Noiseprint: Noiseprint is the sound of the videogames you used to play as a child, tears before bedtime, violins and silver screens and the soft pulse of projectors.

This is our debut EP Please enjoy.

x Aidan and Jamie

Based in London and Brighton Nosieprint is the combined forces of singer/producer Aidan Neeson and co producer & visual artist Jamie Dale.
Originally the pair met in New Zealand while studying music production together at college. After their initial conception the two recorded a collection of songs that were never released.
In 2007 the pair who had both coincidentally found themselves wandering the streets of London reunited and Noiseprint was born. Their debut EP "Paper Garden" is a rich tapestry of lush production, melodic melancholy and their own eclectic blend of electronica. To simply cast them into the Electro Pop category would not do them justice. With influences ranging from 80s New Wave, Film Noir soundtracks and an avid interest in art supplies it is fair to say they have their own sound which is both as refreshing as it is unique. Noiseprint are a very welcome addition to the overcrowded mantle piece of today’s music.

I enjoy making Trance, Techno, Dance, House, etc. You can visit my Myspace page at www. myspace.com/djrushn1. Enjoy and much thanks.

STARR VOCALS ARE A PITCH HIGHER THAN HER NORMAL LAID-BACK TONE ON 151, GIVING THE SONG A NEW SIDE TO HER PORTFOLIO. THIS RE-INTRODUCTION TO THE INDUSTRY, FOLLOWING THE UNDERGROUND SUCCESS, "DA KANDI LADI," IS MUCH ANTICIPATED AND HAS SUMMER-TIME CLASSIC WRITTEN ALL OVER IT. WHEN ASKED ABOUT HOW THE SONG CAME TO LIFE, STARR REPLIED, " WE CAME UP WITH THE CATCHY CONCEPT OF 151 DUE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD'S MOOD- MOST PEOPLE WANT TO BRIEFLY ESCAPE... EITHER AT THE CLUB, A RIDE IN THE CAR, OR A SOCIAL SETTING WITH FRIENDS."

•  Awesome Track to Chill To

Plunkett: an English boy and an Italian girl.
Both Ian and Lara had a love for music from a very early age.
After studying music at Rome, writing and recording with the ambient project Ex Machina and alternative electro pop group Otero, Lara became a partner and A&R of the Dune Records, an independent italian label based in Florence.
Ian had always played in bands and after finally finding like minded musicians the electro pop/rock band ‘Pukromo' was born. In late 1999 Pukromo signed to Dune Records recording their debut album ‘Promise Me Kill Me' during 2000.
Life’s funny sometimes and although the label and band folded, Ian and Lara got together.
Frustrated by the mechanisms and ties of the music biz and tired of their ‘electronic’ past, they focused on their emotions, on themselves. Without any thought or the pressure of trying be anything other than that. Themselves.
In 2006 their debut album ’14 Days’ was released. An acoustic orientated, intimate album of alternative contemporary folk rock. The album received an unexpected critic and listener's acclaim through the internet leading them to being featured artists on some of the most important independent music sites throughout the world. Many of the songs have also since been used in two American independent films: Dave's Date (Forbidden Foot) by Natasha Guruleva (Accent Works) and A Hell Shared by Karl Rose (Current Production).
2008 sees the release of Plunkett’s second album ‘Folk Songs’. Contrasting its predecessor, although still remaining alternative contemporary folk rock, the sound and feeling of the album is much more direct with as much emphasis on the lyrics as on the music.

With a desire to only write songs and move people, Plunkett choose to remain independent artists and work outside of the mainstream music business.

Plunkett make Independent music for independent minds.

•  Hot track!

Stephan Panev is a DJ and producer. He is making music since 2001. At this point he had went throught many music genres and a lot of experimentations with the sound. The difference between his styles can be heard by him as a DJ too, hist sets are moving from slower to faster, from Electro house throught Progressive, even to Rave, Hard Techno and Schranz. The people who had heard him can recognize him only by the first two songs in the mix, at first eclectic sounds and melodies but mixed with perfection. You can find him mostly at Underground parties and fests. His live mixes are usually about 3 hours long.

Plays on a few instruments, that can be heard in his songs. He is also an author of many remixes and bootleg tracks. Some of his best songs are Pink Bondage, Fck Teh Pron, When I Met God, Club Radar, Back 2 Detroit, We Left The School.

He was born on 28 August, 1988 in Sofia, Bulgaria. It doesn’t took a long time before he finds his love for the music. At the beginning he is playing on a classic guitar, after that on bass guitar. Later he had the chance to touch a synthesiser and “electronity” in him was released. He’s first electronic project is called “The First Statement”, it contained 2 songs, recorded on a tape, mono, in 2001. After that he releases a few other projects, until today. Now Stephan Panev is working on some club projects, playing live and working with many youg but great artists like Relifting, Marrvel and Red Velvet.

Music has always been my passion. I started listening to Trance from the very early days. My main influence has been:Tiesto,Kyau&Albert,Armin van Buuren, Paul Van Dyk,Kai Tracid.ATB,Dj Sammy,Blank& Jones,4strings,Rank1,Chicane,Mauro Picotto,Zeynep Erol and others... ! Behind each song there is an inspiration, and I hope to inspire or touch others with it. When I create music or make (remix), I give it *my all*. Sometimes a song can take up to five months to complete. I strive to get better and better and ultimately reach perfection.Being able to positively affect people with my music is the best reward I can ask for. I am glad I do music *for music* and not because of commercial demands with restrictions in place. This freedom is vital for every artist... ! Having said all this, my music will take you to another world, so feel free to be my fan and friend. You won't regret it. !!!!!
