FEATURED ARTIST

AIRTO

Airto Edmundo Nicolaas is 23 years old and was born in Hoorn.
He started to sing when he was 15 years of age. He dropped his soccer career at the highest level for a music career at age 18.

Airto says :"Deep inside I've always had the urge to sing and make music.
First I added some recordings on You Tube to test my popularity. The reactions on my, bad quality, recordings were extremely positive! So I invested in a new camera and slowly started to work on new and improved recording material".

In 2005 Airto wrote his first song called : You
Since then he really started to aspire a career as a singer / songwriter and decided to use You Tube as a platform. At this moment he has had over 3 million channel views. In comparison with other youtubers his views / subscribers level is very high and the average rating of his videos is 4.9 stars out of 5.

After Esmee Denters and Tiesto Airto is the biggest You Tube Channel of Holland. He has been guest at the radio show of Giel at 3FM and at the television network TMF to talk about his rising popularity on the internet.

"I describe my music as Soul, R&B, but I can also write songs in Pop, Contemporary R&B and Dance style. I make my own music especially in the Pop, R&B and Soul style.

FEATURED SONGWRITER

BEAT ROYALTY

At the end of 2008 the EMI Music Publishing producer / songwriter team Beat Royalty delivered the debut album of Sabrina Starke.

The Dutch Sabrina Starke (29) was working on her musical career for a few years already, but her final breakthrough came in 2008. A performance in a tv show called “De Wereld Draait Door” gave her career a boost.
The American Blue Note label offered her a record deal and her debut album “Yellow Brick Road”is now released.

The title of the album takes its name from her favourite movie “The Wiz” from 1978.

Her music is pure and the songs are based on her own life experiences. On this album Sabrina combines soul, jazz, hip-hop and reggae into a warm accessible sound. Not every song holds a deep message, but the album does reflect the growth she has experienced in life as a woman and what her outlook on life is.

The production team Beat Royalty (Chris Kooreman and Edo Plasscheart) are based in Los Angeles. They worked together on this album with the multiple nominated engineers Brad Gilderman and Aaron Lepley of the Little Big Room Studio.

Besides a number of songs on her album her second single Foolish is co-written by Beat Royalty.
