About Me



Platform 12 Promotions is an independent promotion company focused on helping dedicated, talented artists succeed & reach a wider audience by distributing press releases and promoting to podcasts, magazines, and internet radio. Platform 12 creates packages individual to the artists rather than general campaigns that end up costing the artist but not helping them. For an example of Platform 12's results, search "Inner Surge" on Google for result examples as well as press. Platform 12 was started in June 2004, and have since helped gain excellent opportunities for the artists involved. For pricing, contact me via myspace. I only accept bands that I personally feel have a professional sound and are ready for a promotion campaign. The current roster is Inner Surge, Post Death Soundtrack, the Blackest Feather, Johnny Incognito and Free Form. While the music is eclectic and different, it has a common theme. Artists working hard to be heard. Inner Surge is a politically charged metal, hardcore & punk act from Calgary that has received top reviews for it's recently released full length CD "Signals Screaming"(released through Cyclone Records), and has been likened to Rage against the Machine, Refused and Tool. They will be on the 2007 movie soundtrack for horror film "Cabras", directed by Fredy Polania. They are also set to be featured on the film soundtracks for Macabro Films movie "Amok!" and the Paladin Pictures film "Rebellion of Thought". Inner Surge played Warped Tour 2006 at Race City Speedway and is also featured in the book "New Wave of American Heavy Metal". Their official website is at www.innersurge.com The Blackest Feather is a solo acoustic/electronic project from Winnipeg Manitoba Canada. honest, dark, sweet, moody, music from the heart. If your looking to listen to polished slick recordings The Blackest Feather does not apply, the recordings are raw and are fully about the mood and moment at hand. Post Death Soundtrack is a dark industrial and experimental project formed by Ken Buck & Steve Moore. The project is influenced by the likes of Skinny Puppy and Radiohead. Johnny Incognito brings the punk rock and attitude to the roster, with their latest release entitled "The STD". Their latest album is finished up so go check it out at www.johnnyincognito.com Free Form is a dark solo project from the likes of Inner Surge's Steve Moore.
