Dear Bhangra Omega Sites!
Hi, My name is Rich Overton and I am the Marketing Coordinator at Two Sheps That Pass… a music marketing and consultation company. We are currently working with Real World Works and Dharma Moon to help promote TJ Rehmi’s, upcoming album, “The Warm Chill” (Release Date: February 3, 2004). We are reaching out to you because we believe your audience would dig this title.
TJ Rehmi, accomplished musician, composer and producer from Birmingham, England began his career playing with local Jazz and Reggae bands. As the Bhangra scene began to build momentum in the mid 1980's, TJ was in the mix, touring with such influential UK Bhangra bands as A.S. Kang, Pardesi, Achanak, Azaad and Chirag Pechan in addition to studio production and session work with many top acts.In the 90's, TJ began writing and producing his own music to round out his performing career. TJ's first E.P., The Fusionist came out on Nation records in 1996. His distinctive use of Drum & Bass beats mixed with his unique style brought about a following in Europe that lead to the release of his second EP, Skrutinizer in 1997, followed by four albums on Nation and Shakti Records. TJ also started remixing songs for such labels as Real Records, Urgent Records, OSA and Six Degrees. Tracks from his albums have appeared on numerous compilations including the "Asian Chill" (Manteca) and "VIP Lounge" (George V Records) CD's. “The Warm Chill”, his fifth full-length, is an innovative blend of electronic breakbeats and eastern melodies fused with chill guitar. This album will take you through a myriad of moods, incorporating drum and bass against an exotic chill out soundscape
“Rehmi has managed to create a piece of work that redefines the very essence of what a Chill album, and a Brit Asian album should be … TJ has always made electronica emotional, but this time he made his studio weep.”
~ Bobby Friction D.J./ BBC Radio1
We are looking to secure as much pre-release awareness as possible and are looking to you to help us out. Got any suggestions on how we can impact the visitors to your site? Can we do a remix contest? Host a listening party before the album streets? Post full-length audio streams or banners on your site. What about posting an album review, running a contest on your site giving away a couple of copies of the CD, posting an interview with TJ or simply mentioning the title on your site or in your newsletter. We are looking for any sort of awareness we can get.
We hope you are interested in getting involved with this title. Let us know, so we can mail CDs, artwork, or any other materials that you may need right away.
We look forward to working with you.
Best regards,
Rich Overton
