Minneapolis Studio and Label in National Magazine

Minneapolis based music studio C-Sharp Productions ( http://www.sharpmusic.com
) is featured in an article in the April issue of More Magazine. The
magazine is a national women�s magazine and is on newsstands around
the country now.

"The magazine did a story on women who followed their dreams. One of
the dreams they featured was recording a CD," Chad Sharp president of
C-Sharp Productions explains. "They contacted me to find out what it
costs to record a CD."

Sharp has been producing and recording CD�s with independent artists
and bands since he started C-Sharp Productions in 1996. Sharp moved
the company to Minneapolis from Mitchell, SD in 2007. He has worked on
projects in many styles like pop, country, rock, dance and R&B. Sharp
said besides recording with artists he also helps them with
traditional and online music promotion.

"The music industry is changing very quickly. Online promotion is the
future and it is really happening right now," Sharp says.

Whether it has to do with the philosophy of better living through
habit, thought or magical action, things that are associated with "New
Age" are theoretically supposed to have some basis in spirituality.
Yet much of this spiritually is lightly rooted in the shallows of
corporate productivity techniques or power-of-positive-thinking type
truisms with some pseudo eastern promises for dressing.

Then there is the New Age philosophy that harkens back to something
ancient, even primordial. This is especially visible in the music. So
much of what is called New Age music is made from artificial
ingredients, from canned sounds created by synthesizers tuned and
programmed for maximum vapidity; and voices, always the voices, high
and breathy with a thin, grating tone that someone somewhere decided
signified the celestial. But there are musicians who create spiritual
