408INC.COM - WHERE SOUTHBAY HAPPENS.

Well, let me start off this INC blog by saying first of all thank you all for the continued support of 408INC. We’ve made some tremendous strides in recent weeks and I would like to share them with you all.

The INC is drying on two nice deals and as of two weeks ago, 408 Media, LLC. has inked a deal with UMA/Ingrooves/Universal Music Group for world wide digital distribution. They distribute digitally for Dolly Pardon, Tila Tequila, Heiro & more recently Snoop Dogg. This means a few things here. One, it gives the company the opportunity to have it’s projects purchased on basically any digital platform you can find the likes of Brittany Spears on. Two, our deal has made us the “hub” for the Southbay Area. What that means is Ingrooves has opted to run all of it’s Southbay Projects through us rather than have 25 different labels, they want “one” account.  Digital distribution is offered by many companies all over, including the likes of CDBaby, Songcast and more; but this is the next level. We’re excited about the opportunity that has been given to us and look forward to turning this into a big win. Side Note: This does not mean everything in the online shop: http://www.408incshop.com is ran through the Ingrooves account. It’s strictly projects 408INC has it’s stamp on. The shop digital remains the same, digital download on the shop only.

The 2nd deal is just as big for us as we turn this company into a full media machine. We’ve also inked a deal to offer help with CD Pressing. We can now assist others with pressing their CD’s when they are ready to hit retail and our price is competitive and turnaround time is faster than most can offer. I’ve personally talked to numerous people in person and online about their pressing horror stories. Things like 30 days to 2 month wait times, outrageous pricing and hidden fees. We’ve built such a solid network that other corporations are seeing this and wanting to bring 408INC aboard to help out clients in the Southbay. Our turnaround time is 10 days and our flat rate out the door for 1,000 units retail ready (4 panel, one fold, color disc & clear jewel) is $1,200 out the door. (Local Southbay Area Only) No hidden costs at all. If the price is beaten, we’ll bet your waiting for your product for more than 10 days and in today’s world everyday missed is lost money. If your layout is different, email us for a quote: 408incmedia@gmail.com If your curious about our quality, check out Teal Town Boyz when that hits the streets in March.

How can great news get any better? Well, simply by telling all of you that Teal Town Boyz Weekend was a Success! We had a great turnout for the listening party in Mtn. View at Club XO last Thursday. Alot of people showed up, took pictures soaked the album up and had a great time. On Saturday, the Gorilla Smashin video brought out 100+ people throughout the day to make cameos and to support. It was great meeting everyone out there and it was an incident free event, which is always nice. We bar-b-qued afterwards and networked with alot of people. Pictures are up on my personal myspace here: http://www.myspace.com/playarae or http://www.myspace.com/tealtownboyz  If you’d like to see the behind the scenes video footage you can watch that here: http://www.youtube.com/playaraemusic (Be Sure to SUBSCRIBE). Thanks again to all of you who came out and showed love. The success is possible with all of you.

Some final words to close out. We’ve got INC Spots featuring Kung Fu Vampire, G-Roc & MaGruff to put up so please look out for those on the site and the 408INC TV channel on youtube here: http://www.youtube.com/408inc (Be Sure to SUBSCRIBE). We’ve added alot of new music to the shop from not just the Southbay but all over the Bay Area in general so check that out too. Teal Town Boyz is also available now on the shop for $8.99 Digi-Download and will be available on hard disc in March. Oh yea, before I forget…the Media side of things is doing well too. I am super busy these days…but we’ve done some new myspace overlays for people and working on some album covers and full blown websites for others. If you need work, email: 408incmedia@gmail.com (Check out the new overlay for A-Money: http://www.myspace.com/amoneyakayoungedhardy ) More graphics can be seen here: http://www.myspace.com/408inc in the photos section.

Thanks, that’s all I have….stay blessed folks!
