EPISODE 2: The WOA TV Show - All Things Music SEASON 3
EPISODE 2: THE WOA TV SHOW SEASON 3
This weeks episode brings us an eclectic mix of really talented artists including Billy Dean and the Rebels who have had over a million hits on youtube for their music video and we highly recommend this track that brings Indie Rock to the forefront. We also have Fiona Miss 2.1 with her song Up& Down that we premiered on the WOAFM99 Radio Show's premiere episode - if you haven't checked out the WOAFM99 Radio show you really shouldn't miss it, and if you are the owner of the brand new iPhone you MUST subscribe to the WOA TV & Radio Podcast where you will get the WOA TV Show 3 minute promos before every episode so you can check out what we have oin store on the upcoming episode and you get the FULL episode of each and every WOAFM99 Radio Show which you can listen to anytime.
The Second segment of Episode 2 begins with Natalie Jean who incidentally is also on the Goa Chillout Zone Vol.5, which we are totally in love with by the way, a more synth based artist with a more retro electronic production, we know for a fact there are massive number of fans for this kind of sound - enjoy 'Mission' by Natalie Jean. Following this is Susan Muranty, an Australian artist with a SUPER CHILL song and video - she would have been a good addition to the Goa Chillout Zone actually - you can almost imagine yourself chilling by the beach at sunset with the track coming over the light breeze while you sip a cold one :-)
The last segment of todays show is quite interesting, the video starting off segment 3 of this episode is Paul Thomas Yoder, one of our new favorites actually, and also a featured act on the Goa Chillout Zone with the same song as this video called 'Catalina Cool'.
The last song of todays episode is really quirky and has us going out on a limb - not something we usually feature on our show but with all the rage of Korean songs that have been getting Grammy's and MTV EMA's and even toppling over major platinum selling songs and high profile artists last year we decided to give you a FULL ON Korean track by LOVE X STEREO that is gaining major traction Internationally now.
Get in touch with us, send us comments the good ones will get a reply and a lot of love from all of us and all the artists, the bad comments however will get whats coming to you ;-)) hahaha
Much Love from all of us at WOA TV

WOA Artist Eric Dulle rocking it on France!
Article on WOA Artist Eric Dulle on French News paper. Eric Dulle will be performing in India and Dubai this year on the 6th annual WOA India Tour and the WOA Dubai Music Festival.
Coudekerque-Branche: Éric Dulle, le «Prince» du saxophone qui fait fureur en Inde
« Fin 2011, j'ai fait une tournée en Inde, à Goa. Là-bas, ma musique est diffusée sur plusieurs radios et télévisions et on trouve mes disques chez les disquaires », raconte Éric Dulle, Coudekerquois depuis dix ans et dont on n'entend peu la musique sur les ondes du littoral. Il a créé son entreprise, «Gilnie Production » en 2006 pour maîtriser, un peu comme Prince avant lui, toute la chaîne de la production musicale : « Dans ma famille, on est musicien de père en fils. Mon père, Gilbert Dulle était professeur de saxophone à l'Académie de musique de Coudekerque-Branche. Il m'a forcé à faire de la musique mais il m'a laissé choisir mon instrument. J'ai choisi le saxophone puisque j'avais un professeur à la maison »
Jusqu'à 187 dates par an
Le vrai déclic est venu à l'adolescence, avec les cours de jazz de Roger Naert (école de musique de Dunkerque) qui lui ont permis de découvrir l'improvisation et la création : « Je fais de la scène depuis l'âge de 14 ans, j'ai fait mes premiers cachets dans les bals du Dunkerquois. Ensuite, je suis parti à Lille où j'ai joué de tous les styles : musette, free jazz, dixieland, rock, funk… J'étais trop actif. Je ne voulais pas être intermittent ! Lors de mon année record, j'ai fait 187 dates mais, en moyenne j'en fais 120 par an. J'ai joué avec James Carter et Didier Lockwood ». Éric Dulle dispose d'un studio et peut se targuer d'avoir sorti trois albums, qui mettent en valeur le saxophone à qui il confie sa voix : « C'est un mélange de reprises de musiques pop, que je réinterprète et réarrange, et de compositions ». Dans son dernier opus, il reprend « Passion » de Rod Stewart, « Come Together » de John Lennon ou encore « Billie Jean» de Michael Jackson. Ses compositions s'intitulent « Family » ou « So naïve ». On remarque l'influence des années 80 : « C'était une époque très créative. Il n'y avait pas énormément de reprises. Aujourd'hui, on prend un MP3, on chante et on se dit artiste ! »
En 2011, il a décroché un contrat de management pour trois ans en Inde avec la maison de disques WOA International. Là-bas, il s'est fait connaître sur des plateaux multi-artistes : « Je me suis retrouvé avec le groupe de métal « Overhate » du Venezuela qui a déjà ouvert des concerts de Metallica… En octobre, je repars pour une tournée en Inde puis à Dubaï avec le chanteur allemand Mathias Sturm et Oliver Sean ». Ambitieuse, sa maison de disques veut le lancer en Afrique du Nord. Éric Dulle a aussi composé la musique et les arrangements du dernier single de Noël Lagoia (la « voix » de Claude François dans « Podium »), « Boulevard Exelmans».

5th Anniversary Goa Chillout Zone compilation releasing worldwide on 29th August 2013
5th Anniversary Goa Chillout Zone compilation releasing worldwide on 29th August 2013
"Being the 5th anniversary edition of the Goa Chillout Zone my team had a very tough time selecting the artists for this 5th anniversary album of the GCZ" says Oliver Sean, Producer of the Goa Chillout Zone & Founder of W.O.A International, "after much deliberation we finalized some of the past GCZ acts who had great success through their inclusion on the Goa Chillout Zone compilations through the years and also introduce some exceptional new artists we discovered through the GCZ Vol.5 submissions"
The Goa Chillout Zone started out as a one off compilation CD in 2008 to promote Independent artists who were making chill and easy listening music that was as good as any of the major releases during that year. The compilation was a way to give these exceptional artists a world stage and introduce their music to a wider audience. The first Volume of the Goa Chillout Zone was a runaway success when mainstream radio and top lounge venues across holiday destinations worldwide started giving the cd some great rotation.
As the album was released purely to promote the artists with absoluetely no returns in terms of profits or even breaking even for the label, the compilation gained a lot of goodwill from the press, radio and fans. The CD went on to hit the top of various radio charts and Volume 2 of the Goa Chillout Zone the following year hit the No.2 spot on the Retail Album Charts in India.
The artists featured on this compilation have had tremendous success, with commercial radio giving their individual albums rotation on mainstream radio, major labels signing on some of the artists for their own compilation CDs (Universal Aurstralia, Times Music etc) and various featured spots on the annual W.O.A International Music Festival and India Tour.
The upcoming release of the Goa Chillout Zone marks the 5th album in this double CD compilation, which till date is being promoted mainly as an Independent Artists promotional album to introduce and to give these fantastic artists a level playing field for their own albums. With in store distribution across major record stores, top radio stations giving the album prime time rotation, national advertising budgetrs allocated for the album by WOA Records for national TV and press to further promote the CD, the Goa Chillout Zone is now known ad the best indie chill aqlbum in the world.
