Music From Former Major Label Artists Motorhead, Eagles, Journey, Joan Osborne, Natalie Cole, and Everlast Distributed Digitally in the United States
TORONTO, Aug. 28 /CNW/ - YANGAROO Inc., (TSX-V: YOO, OTCBB: YOOIF) the industry's leading secure digital media distribution company, has recently delivered new releases by former major label artists Motorhead, Eagles, Journey, Joan Osborne, Natalie Cole, and Everlast. YANGAROO has entered into commercial agreements with more than 30 new independent record labels and aggregators in the first seven months of this year to use its Digital Media Distribution System (DMDS).
With YANGAROO's DMDS, an independent label or aggregator can upload their artists' music, add marketing and promotional information, choose a package of key radio stations in a given radio format or genre, or other destination, including press and reviewers. A song can then be delivered instantly over the Internet in an environmentally-friendly manner rather than by CD, significantly reducing the overall cost of promotion.
"The adoption of DMDS by the independent record label and aggregator community over the past several months has been remarkable," said John Heaven, President and CEO, YANGAROO Inc. "We expect this growth not only to continue, but to accelerate as the independent sector grows and expands."
