"East Coast does West Coast right, especially when were talking about Atlantic Connection. AC’s Boston roots don’t stop him from partying it up westside style. AC’s big hit “Big Shot” worked perfectly on MTV’s Jersey Shore and his other tracks included in Hype maintain the same momentum and party anthem vibe. His songs have the biggest impact with the car window down and the volume cranked to 10!" - Rick Kimbrel
"Extreme Music have partnered with MTV to create a new platform. Hype Music.
They’re calling it a hybrid licensing partnership as it combines an old-school A&R approach to discovering & nurturing raw, new talent in the form of bands and artists and an innovative direction in finding new ways to license the music. By partnering with MTV (who also serve as distributor), all artists get a first-look consideration for placement in MTV shows and they also benefit from the reach and reputation of Extreme Music who will provide their pre-cleared songs to professional music users around the world.
So to boil it down we’re seeing a real cross-pollination between the worlds of commercial and production music. Smart move!"
