“Eileen Carey deftly mixes pop and country influences on her new CD, inserting in her leads a clarity and edge that is refreshing and insightful.” (Nashville City Paper)

A montage of love-crossed dancers and classic era Parisian movie scenes, award-winning country pop star Eileen Carey’s enchanting video for her crossover hit “In the Air” is the perfect antidote to recent terrorist attacks, racial violence, and global turmoil. Credited by music blog POPDOSE with “blending pop, country, and rock in a way that feels uniquely hers,” Carey was recently named the 2016 National Radio Hits Favorite Female Country Artist of the Year and New Music Weekly’s Country Breakthrough Artist of the Year. "In the Air" is the first single from Carey’s forthcoming fifth studio album, produced by Travis Allen Childress.

Directed by Taner Tumyaka and inspired by Paris, the video for “In the Air” is a heartfelt tribute to the city Carey visited two weeks before terrorists killed 130 people there in November of 2015. Featuring dancers Kristen Morris and Daniel Kermidas, the video is a reminder of the conquering nature of love in such troubled times:

“Paris is such a whirlwind of love, romance, and excitement. The city inspired me to write a love song for two people set in the gaiety that is still Paris. Simply put, it is about love over hate.”

Having recently made her third consecutive appearance at the CMA Music Festival in Nashville, Carey’s “Bottle Your Crazy Up” reached #1 nationally in 2015, where it competed with major-label country performers. Carey’s three released singles are from Let It Go, her most successful album to date. Carey won The Academia Music Awards Best Country/Rock Song of the Year for “Bottle Your Crazy Up.” Akadamia.com called Carey’s composition and performance “a clever country jam with dulcet vocals and superb instrumentation, illustrating one of the most stringent performance standards we've encountered.”

Carey's last three music videos, “Bottle Your Crazy Up,” the feel-good summer release “Party at the Beach,” and “Faith,” have accumulated more than 105,000 Youtube views. Her single “Faith” reached the top of all the NMW country radio charts (main, indie, Internet), and reached the very top spot in all the NMW AC charts and Top 40 charts as well.“Faith” also made an appearance on Music Row's Country Breakout chart. Carey’s current single, “Bring on the Big,” is currently holding on to the #1 spot on the NMW Country charts for weeks, and appeared at #1 on the NMW Adult Contemporary Hot AC chart.

Carey has also started posting in her new blog, The Music Mom. The Music Mom reveals Carey's desire to positively impact others via the sharing of her experiences and wisdom:“The world is filled with ups and downs, so if I can help people see things in a more positive light, perhaps they can find a better place in life.”

The Infinite Innovator: Introducing Headphone Surround Sound, Legendary Engineer and “Godfather of Electronica” Robert Margouleff Breaks Musical Ground Again

Recording icon Robert Margouleff is once again at the forefront of modern music innovation with his pioneering work in HPS 12.1 Headphone Surround. HPS 12.1 offers an incredible personal listening experience by delivering 7.1 surround channels on the horizon and five channels above - on any headphones. The result is a heightened sense of situational awareness and engagement. HPS 12.1 is instantly available to everyone who uses headphones with their mobile devices.

Affectionately known as "The Godfather of Electronica," Margouleff helped to bring the Moog synthesizer into modern music with Stevie Wonder in the 1970s. According to The Atlantic, “Margouleff’s revolutionary work with synthesizers helped shape Wonder's groundbreaking sounds.” Margouleff also produced DEVO’s 1980 classic "Whip It." Now Margouleff is making history again with electro-popper Lexi Baker, producing her debut album Ultimate Reality in both stereo and Headphone Surround.  

A studio genius who will be featured on the upcoming PBS Soundbreaking series created by the late Sir George Martin, Margouleff is an accomplished record producer, recording engineer and film producer. He is most noted for his work with electronic music synthesizer programming on Stevie Wonder’s acclaimed albums Music of My Mind, Talking Book, Innervisions, and Fulfillingness' First Finale.

Margouleff and collaborator Malcolm Cecil played a major role in bringing synthesizers to the forefront of popular music. Under the name Tonto’s Expanding Headband, their 1971 album Zero Time attracted Wonder and other leading artists to the emerging music technology. Margouleff has since worked with Billy Preston, Depeche Mode, Oingo Boingo, The Doobie Brothers, Quincy Jones, The Isley Brothers, and Joan Baez, among others.

According to Margouleff, audio engineers and record producers “should strive for the highest possible quality of creation - so that everyone's experience can be the best possible.” He calls HPS 12.1 a “disruptive new production technology, based on mathematical and cognitive models of audio perception that allow the listener to perceive a sphere of sound.” All HPS 12.1 content is distributable through digital music and video retailers, including iTunes, Amazon, Google, Tidal, and Spotify.

HPS 12.1 also benefits the creators of music by giving composers, artists, and producers the power to create an immersive sound space that adds real value for consumers. Margouleff was experimenting with the  innovative music technology and looking for a new artist, when he discovered Baker, whose music immediately impressed Margouleff. The two soon began the journey that would result in Baker’s forthcoming debut album, Ultimate Reality. Her first single “Say It Like You Mean It” has just been released, and can be heard here in Headphone Surround.
