Hit indie singer/songwriter Gary Taylor and Pax Stereo have joined forces to promote the new "Retro Blackness" CD primarily using social networking sites. They are experiencing a new breed of success, including some unexpected radio support. Is this yet another example of "The Long Tail?" All eyes are now on Pax Stereo as they prepare to launch their meganiche artist vlogging networks.

(PRWEB) November 20, 2006 -- In what appears to be a virtual fairy tale, two indie icons, Pax Stereo™ (www.myspace.com/paxstereo) and R&B singer/songwriter Gary Taylor (www.myspace.com/garytaylorbohemian) have teamed up, and are experiencing what is quickly becoming the internet fantasy of our time; success as an indie label. They say it is all part of the new technology and culture, and that they are another example of the "long tail" phenomenon currently sweeping the business world.


Things are going smoothly for these indie veterans who are used to the harder times of the past. New technologies are making their lives much easier and more productive. Gary Taylor, who has penned hits for R&B legends such as Anita Baker ("Good Love"), The Whispers ("Just Gets Better With Time"), Lalah Hathaway ("I'm Coming Back"), and others, now has some much needed support and some newly evolved means of distribution. But he is most amazed by how quick the response has been in coming from the public. "This is the best rollout of a CD that I have ever had, and we have only been working together for just over three months." Pax Stereo CEO Mario Hemsley enjoys pointing out that "our time has arrived." "For so long the labels had all the advantages, and they still have most of them, but the playing field is a lot more level. Now we can compete. We are more cost-effective, and with innovation and a more personal approach to our fans, we can outperform."

The websites and MySpace pages include many of the current new and evolving innovations that users have available to customize their spaces. These include slideshows, virtual hosts, instant mp3 purchase and download, blogs, and access to artists "friend" networks.
