management services to clients across a broad ranges of industries.
"This new business model will provide monetary safety and transparent
accounting within a easy-to-use business platform," explained Mr. Bill
Zang, Vice President of Shanghai Synergy Group.
Key features of the LMS include:
-- Advanced multimedia, information and social networking technologies to
target and serve new market communities.
-- Payment and royalty-splitting accounting assuring artists and copyright
owners receive complete financial reports.
-- Unique, patented watermark technologies developed by the German music
and technology company, CUGATE, to safeguard intellectual property
rights and enhance the customers' experience.
-- Business intelligence (BI) and market trend data that gives artists and
companies a competitive-edge in identifying new consumer demand and
tastes.
-- Creative Ad placements in multi-dimensional hypermedia environments to
target point-to-point sales.
-- Easy-to-use editing tools and licensing agreements enabling users to
create and share their work with others via mobile devices.
-- A Global Creative Awards Program that will identify, manage and promote
new Chinese talent in the international market.
"The LMS e-business platform will propel the Chinese music market to
the forefront of the global marketplace," affirmed Dr. Thomas Olscheske,
President of a-Peer Synergy.
A new music e-business web site, AScalling (pronounced: a-s-calling),
will be jointly launched by Shanghai Synergy Group and a-Peer Synergy
Shanghai at the end of December. It will use the LMS to introduce a massive
library of top-quality international music content and information to the
China market. AScalling will introduce Chinese artists to the world market
and distributed their creative work around the world.
Shanghai Synergy and a-Peer Synergy's combined efforts have resulted in
exclusive licensing over a hundred international indie labels such
Nettwerk, Six Degrees, Crammed, BadTaste, etc. Within a year AScalling's
site expects to have over a million tracks available to consumers. They
will release between 50 to 100 international physical music albums per
month featuring artists like Ruslana, Bebel Gilberto, Bosson, Perishers,
Danko Jones, VT etc.
Peter Jenner, the original legendary UK manager of Pink Floyd and the
President Emeritus of the International Music Management Forum (IMMF), has
been invited as an international advisor helping to organize a series of
professional music business, production, management and educational
training seminars, starting November 2008.
