For over thirty-five years PANGAEA has been creating music that intrigues the mind and inspires the soul. Since their formation in 1989 they have garnered interest in over fifty nations across the globe.  The band's tight, melodic ensemble playing, highly proficient level of musicianship and excellent songwriting and singing, is reminiscent of prog rock's classic era while also showcasing the band's modern era sensibilities. The band was formed initially as Artica in 1989 in Tulsa, Oklahoma by Corey and Andi Schenck, Ron Poulsen, Darrell Masingale (guitar/vocals) and Keith Tinker.  Lead vocalist Steve Osborn joined the band in 1991, establishing the lineup that would become Pangaea.   The concept for the band was to create a sound based on the classic rock and progressive rock of the past while utilizing modern sounds and styles. The idea was simple: amalgamate memorable melodies; rich harmonies; powerful rhythms, and other musical elements into compact song structures.     Their first release was a ten-song album entitled Le Collage D'Exoticolours in 1991.  Tinker left the band in 1992 although he still performs and records with the band on occasion.     From 1992 to '94, they recorded and released three more albums – Rotating Oceans, Grey, and The Guild…with each release helping them to garner increased national exposure.   1995 saw the release of the EP, Liquid Placidity, which caught the attention of producer/musician Robert Berry (whose credits include 3, GTR, Greg Kihn and Keith Emerson).   The band went into Berry's studio in 1996 and recorded The Rite of Passage album, which sold well, received radio airplay on numerous radio stations both domestically and overseas and put the band on the musical map internationally.     Berry produced the band's albums Welcome to the Theatre (1999) and A Time & a Place(2002), both of which continued to garner the band critical praise and increase their fan base.  Berry also produced the band's The Reckoning album in 2003, but as-of-yet, it remains unreleased.   In 2005, Pangaea recorded acoustic arrangements of several songs at the home of actor/comedian Dan Aykroyd and his brother Peter Aykroyd.  This led to an unplugged tour of Borders Books stores, Hard Rock Cafes, and other venues.     The band performed in 2008 at a Houston Dynamo soccer match before 12,000 people but after that show, the band went on an extended hiatus that lasted 15 years.   Eventually deciding to reform in 2023, the band added multi-instrumentalist Scott Draughon to its classic lineup and recorded the new album, Beowulf, with Robert Berry back on board as producer.  The first single from the album, Tomorrow Will Come, was released in April.  The second single, Necromancer, was released in May.   https://pangaea.band   Link to Pangaea FB page:  https://www.facebook.com/pangaearock/photos/coming-may-23-2024beowulfthe-new-album-from-pangaeafeaturing-the-singletomorrow-/1079841843049963/?paipv=0&eav=Afad3fHO8UsHkm2m8meIxRV6ZTT3bERpInfhzREW6D9nQGt8a0gZ5D5VC-nXG6W1gnI&_rdr Learn more about your ad choices.

Warum Indianer in den USA viele Sonderrechte wie z.B. Glückspiel-Lizenzen erhalten haben. (18. 10. 2015)

Singer and songwriter of emotive dream pop who is originally from New York but now lives in Los Angeles. She was named one of the top 100 unsigned artists by Music Connection Magazine. A clip from one of her videos has been heavily featured at Hard Rock Cafes all over the world. Her first album resulted in her voice being in the same conversation as artists like Annie Lennox and Sarah McLachlan and her second studio album is just months from being released.

Hello from Henderson, Nevada and welcome to Michelle Hood’s passion for pyramids. She has hand crafted thousands of them. Each one is crystalized, symbolized and super charged with orgone energy. Infused with her own divine signature along with the universal motto above the Hard Rock Cafes, “Love All, Serve All, For the Good of All,” Michelle continues to deepen her spiritual knowledge around what she is creating. In 2011/12 while researching magnetic fields, frequencies and “stop the sonar” cause, (whales beaching themselves), she heard where someone had thrown orgonite material into the water and the dolphins came. Fascinated, she dug into Dr. Wilhelm Reich’s experiments beginning in the 1930’s. Coined “orgone” by Reich’s own original intentions, this invisible, biophysical energy was named after the sexual orgasm. Blockage of the flow of this energy, he believed, caused physical and emotional illnesses. Orgone has also been described as the universal life force, the basic building block of all organic and inorganic matter. It is also known as Chi, Prana, or simply, “the force.” Reich experimented with harnessing this energy by layering organic and inorganic material together. Further study reveals much information on this man now both positive and negative. Michelle’s intentions, however, are pure positive. She emphasizes that one has to be clear and in a good space to create the beauty, harmony and higher frequency which is infused into her beautiful pyramids and all of her orgone artwork. Michelle refers to her pyramids as Orgone Energy devices. “When I think of Orgone, Michelle explains, which is really the correct word, not orgonite, to my visual mind, orgone energy represents the yin/yang symbol, opposite energies spinning together creating a torsion field.” I layer crystals and metals together, that’s the organic and inorganic material and then when you put them in resin, as the resin hardens, it squeezes the crystal in an amplified state. It’s a higher octave of expression; it locks it in. While the metal is filtering the lower frequencies, the crystal is expressing higher frequencies so it becomes its own generating high frequency/low frequency neutralizing device.” Michelle goes on to say that a higher frequency, when it comes into contact with a lower frequency, automatically lifts up the lower frequency without losing its high place. “Everything is elevated. That’s what these pyramids do. Every orgone pyramid must have a quartz crystal for it to have its piezo effect and that’s the amplified effect.” Orgone is becoming extremely popular as a known energy effect in helping to block harmful EMF’S. It converts the negative energy supply of radiation emitted from electrical wiring, home electronic devices, high-frequency radiation of cellular antennas, wireless routers, cell phones, and the dreaded 5G. Michelle’s pyramids, or “light boxes” as she calls them are created lovingly and purposely for divine human energy to anchor the “Light” of Love and higher vibration on this planet and to deflect some of the truly harmful ones. She considers what she does sacred work, realizing that these pyramids will leave a positive signature upon this earth plane well after she is gone. Thank you, Michelle! litethelight.com
