[RenaudRIGART]

Hello,

Renaud from Zoopa Loop: The International Agency Of Management & Musical
Promotion here.

Zoopa Loop is an international agency whose main goal is to help to promote
bands, artists and record labels on an international basis. I'm working with
radios, magazines, booking agencies, e-zines worldwide

Within Zoopa Loop and this since the end of the last year I'm working on the
promotion of Daniel L.Eden a pop / rock songwriter / musician from Salem,
Oregon. Ten days ago we have inked a deal with an independent US record
label. His album under the name of PaxAmerikana.com should be released by
mid april. So I must work on the promotion of this record. I would like to
know if you are interested in receiving an advance copy of the album for
possible review through your Indy Media.org ( the song "Cheap Licence to
Kill" will be the first single ).

Which Publications, radios, TVS, magazines or jounalists do you suggest I
get in touch with ?

I would like to arrange some radio interviews for Daniel as soon as
possible.

You may read a complete review of the CD on the Blue Comet web site out of
Oxford England at www.geocities.com/musicplanet1k/paxamerikana.htm

I look forward to hearing from you

All the best.

Please find below the press release written by Daniel L.Eden himself:

“There used to be a time when the airwaves in this country (the United
States)  were FREE. Free to put forth ideas, objections,  and alternative
viewpoints.  There was  a time when giant media
conglomerates did not rule the airwave roosts, and small public voices had a
say in the course of history. There was a time when anti war protest music
could be heard on the air, and in the streets. However, with the relaxation
of FCC rules regarding the acquisition of radio stations by multi media
giants in the 90's things have changed radically, and not necessarily for
the better. All of these voices of protest that should have been heard on
your radio  have been silenced.

Since the 60's, when opinion and  protest music helped to change the course
of another unjustified war -there has been a definite
paradigm shift.  During that war, lies and fabrications let to the
50,000+ names written on a certain granite wall in Washington. Today  a
media "Stonewall" exists, separating the people from the truth of an unjust
war, hearing and seeing only one particular embedded viewpoint (Some things
change, some  never do). This time though, the lies and fabrications of an
administration could lead to the extinction of life on the planet.

Today, the Iraq war pales in comparison to Vietnam, but don't worry though,
because there are more Iraqs planned for the near future. More unending wars
lie ahead that could have horrible repercussions for our country and the
world, yet nobody is talking much about it-at least here in the States.

 -Might is right, and the US military is the 800 pound gorilla, armed to the
teeth with weapons of true mass destruction, and extinction. What Americans
conveniently forget though, is the fact that  another 800 pound gorilla
exists, waiting in the wings. This 800 pound gorilla has an alliance with
China, who we seem to be dead set on a collision course with. The horrors of
a future Nuclear War is what PaxAmerikana.com is protesting about. They are
protesting about blind stupidity.  They are protesting about extinction.
They are protesting about Nuclear Winter.

The protest against the present war has been muted,  while all protest music
has died a convenient corporate death, silenced by the media.  The rallying
of songs and spirit to fight an injustice  and  true evils, have been
silenced. The advances in technology combined with the use  of mind numbing
media  techniques has done it's job, and done it well.

 Embedded with the establishment,  flag waving shills and apologists have
managed to shout down the protest, and shut it out from  mainstream opinion
and view. While one can still manage to get a book published against this
administration, you will never hear a protest song on a commercial American
Radio Station.  Protest music against the Iraq war, and the Bushies and
their ilk though has found a welcome home on the internet, short-wave radio
stations, and other stations  overseas.

The band PaxAmeriKana.Com is part of a new and growing phenomenon. The
internet has now become the main voice of protest against the actions of an
illegal and unjust war, and the wars that are bound to follow.  Having been
blacklisted from American Commercial Radio Stations in this country, this
band has attracted listeners from around the world who oppose the actions of
the Bush Administration. Yes, the truth is out there, for anyone with 2
fingers, an internet connection  and of course an open mind. This is a  band
will not be silenced, or ignored. The genie is already out of the digital
bottle, wending it's way around the world.

As the internet has  proven to be a huge boon to the Howard Dean
Presidential Campaign, so too will the truth that is contained on
thousands of web sites, prove to be the great equalizer in the election of
2004.  A president will be found out. 911 will be laid out. The truth will
out, no matter what the apologists say; lie- or stonewall about.

It may be the 21st century and the year 2004, but it is still 1969 on the
Internet.
In that context, PaxAmerikana raises a huge voice against this outrage of
silence, and the hypocrisy of this age. Between the music, and their web
site, a powerful voice of intellectual dissent can be read, and downright
good music can be heard.   You can find out what this band is  all about at
their web site -http://www.paxamerikana.com. Peace.

P.S. Seems like it's 1984 in 2004. George Orwell would be proud”
