<p>Tampa’s psychedelic dance/pop duo and Billboard Top 40 musical outfit <strong>Beatnik Castle </strong>is seeking session singers for a MAJOR recording/performance project. Contact Quincy B at Quincyb@tampabay.rr.com.</p>
<p>“This is a wonderful opportunity for a young, up and coming singer to work with an established musical outfit with some degree of success,” says an excited <strong>Quincy B</strong>, songwriter/producer and CEO of Tampa-based independent label Mad Monk, LTD Records. “Many talented artists always complain that they never get an opportunity…well, here it is.”</p>
<p>The only criteria, however, according to Quincy, is that hard work, dedication, determination, and talent is tantamount to success in any chosen occupation. In addition to session work, this also could lead a talented singer to being a feature on the next Beatnik castle single. “Laziness is worse than heroin, believe me!”</p>
<p><strong>Beatnik Castle’s </strong>debut single<strong> </strong>“Will U B Mine?”  <strong>(</strong>featuring singer<strong> Francillia)</strong> debuted on  <strong>Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Play Chart</strong> for <strong>May 8, 2010 and peaked at # 37 in June 2010. </strong> As of <strong>February 2011, </strong>“Will U B Mine?” is still being played on many dance/ mix radio and television stations worldwide and is a recurrent hot mixer favorite.  Beatnik Castle’s limited edition club remix CD was a Featured Release in Zip Dj’s newsletter and the single was and reached <strong># 2</strong> on <strong>Zip Dj’s</strong> <strong>Top 40 USA National Dance</strong> and <strong>Club Charts </strong>(behind<strong> Adam Lambert) </strong>in April 2010. The song also was recognized by the <strong>National Academy of Recording Arts &amp; Sciences</strong> and placed on the <strong>Official Grammy Ballot</strong> in <strong>2009,</strong> <strong>2010, and 2011</strong>. The video is currently being played on several radio and video outlets worldwide, including <strong>Sirius/XM</strong>, <strong>Logo</strong>, <strong>MTV</strong>, <strong>VH1</strong> and other international video outlets as well receiving <strong>Third Place</strong> in the <strong>Entertainment Category</strong> of the <strong>Tampa Bay Video Awards/</strong> <strong>Professional Division</strong>.</p>
<p>Following a stellar representation at this year’s <strong>Winter Music Conference Showcase</strong>, Beatnik Castle has released “Tu Puedes Ser Mio?” – a <strong>PitBull</strong>-styled reggatone song featuring local female rap sensation <strong>Cila</strong> and singer <strong>Leemarie </strong>and coproduced by<strong> Quincy B </strong>and famed dance producer<strong> Georgie Porgie.</strong></p>
<p>“Beatnik Castle also is preparing to launch its much-anticipated third single “How Do You Mend a Broken Heart (Like Mine)?” in Spring 2011. The single should be ready for release by January 2011. The fourth Beatnik single will be “Wander into You” featuring the extremely talented <strong>Ariale</strong> will be available Spring 2011. Remixes for both “Broken Heart” and, for the most part,  “Wander” will include worldwide famed dance remixers  <strong>Josh Harris</strong>, <strong>Cato K</strong>, <strong>Lenny B</strong>, <strong>Julian Marsh</strong>, and <strong>Majik Boys </strong>as well<strong> Trypsin, Electrosonix, </strong>and<strong> Captain GQ. </strong></p>
<p>“Of course, I’ll always throw in my signature acoustic version, “promises Quincy, who adds the acoustic/piano version of “Broken Heart” features incredible string and orchestra arrangements and, of course, plenty of old school vocals harmonies and layers!” <strong>Cynsings Studios</strong> and video director <strong>Russ Miller</strong> will once again be at the helm for Beatnik Castle’s video shoot and the filming for “Broken Heart” which is scheduled for early 2011 as well.</p>
<p>All Beatnik Castle songs are currently available for worldwide distribution through famed Dance producer <strong>Georgie Porgie’sMusic Plant Group </strong>(<a target="_blank" href="http://www.musicplantrecords.com/"  >www.musicplantrecords.com</a>)</p>
