OUR LATEST PROJECT - Motown is Still Our Town
Paul Miles, Detroit Music Award Winner, is recording an original song titled, "Motown Still Our Town" with the help of a cross section of some of Detroit's most talented singers, musicians, producers, and videographers.
This song's goal, which will be recorded at the 1440 Collective Studio, is to show that through community efforts we can come together artistically to motivate the citizens of Detroit to join in civic pride and show the state, nation, and world that we can make this a proud city.
The artists involved in this project range from Soul, R&B, Country Western, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Rock, Indie, Funk, Folk, Gospel and Blues. The studio and artists have volunteered their time and efforts towards the goal, and plans are to produce a DVD/CD to be provided to Media outlets, Radio, Local TV, Internet, and schools.
Proceeds from sales will go back to designated charities, the city of Detroit, local education, and for the beautification of our city of Detroit.
About the 1440 Collective Studio:
"The music business, if it is to be reformed, improved and resurrected needs to ground itself in its core value once again. A good place to start is with the values of its practitioners." - Jordan Tishler, Digital Bear Entertainment
The 1440 Collective is a group of media professionals that has come together to further their individual enterprises while working in concert to expand their connections within the world’s music and entertainment markets.
