 LOS ANGELES (Simig Media, Inc.) - Simig Media, Inc. today launched a new record label that will publish and distribute records that are recorded and produced by musicians using their own instruments, computers, and software. Simig Media Records will feature artists who not only write and perform their own songs, but also record, mix and produce their albums using their own computers and equipment. The new record label takes a drastically different approach than major record companies and even other independent record labels. The company intendeds to empower the growing number of musicians who are using programs such as Apple's popular GarageBand to create, record, and mix their own songs using home computers. The company will help artists exploit the increased ease of access to the music distribution market represented by electronic distribution channels such as Apple's iTunes Music Store as well as traditional music distribution outlets. The first two albums released by the Simig Media label were also announced today. Tobin Mueller's solo piano record, "Morning Whispers," and Peter Greenstone's eclectic folk-rock "Something" are the first two titles available. The first album is now available for immediate ordering directly through Simig Media's website, or through its distribution partners, and the second album will be available in the coming weeks.
