[edit] History

In 2004, Patrick Oliver and Rocco Cataldo met and decided to start an Internet Radio network devoted to the promotion of independent, unsigned artists from around the world. Combining Patrick's years of IT experience with Rocco's background in the more creative arts of film and television production created an effective check and balance system that served to aid the growth of the firm over the course of the next few years.
