GRAMMY NOMINATED PRODUCER NOTTZ REMIXES UK INDEPENDENT LABEL ARTIST; ADAMA’S TRACK “TAKE ME HOME”. THE RESULT IS A SMOOTH UNION BETWEEN A MAJOR PRODUCER AND AN INDEPENDENT LABEL ARTIST

NEW YORK, NY February 1, 2008 — We are very happy to announce the Grammy Nomination of Record producer, Nottz Raw, for his production on the Kanye West album ‘Graduation’.

Over the past decade, the Virginia-based Producer has made hundreds of classic beats for both newcomers and industry legends. And, judging from his future plans, he’s just getting started. To put it bluntly, Nottz Raw has one hell of a catalog. In a little over a decade the low key Norfolk, Virginia, native has managed to supply backdrops for hip-hops most notable names from Busta Rhymes, SNOOP DOGG and Method Man to Scarface, G-UNIT, Notorious B.I.G. DR. Dre AND THE LIST GOES ON!!!

Nottz latest collaboration is with a newcomer from the UK, Adama. He heard of Adama’s music through her myspace page and was instantly interested in working with her. Nottz approached Adama and asked to remix her song ‘Take Me Home’. The result is a bass pumping new version to the song that will be added as a bonus track on Adama’s debut album ‘Delicate Dragon’ which is due for release in April 15th 2008 on 4Dpeople Records.

Hot out of the studio, ‘Take Me Home – Nottz Remix’ is available for direct download via the following link:

Adama is an artist from the UK who has recently moved to New York and is getting folks here very excited about her unique style. Nottz is not the first to fall into Adama’s creative web. She has already worked with the likes of the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra, Barrett Martin of the Screaming Trees and Peter Buck of R.E.M. Adama’s upcoming debut album which was produced by Gili Wiseburgh (Frou Frou, Imogen Heap, Sugar Babes), incorporates eclectic flavors that appeal to people cross-genre from rock, r&b, pop to jazz. Adama’s style gives a sense of credibility and authenticity but still maintains the melodic focus of pop.

Adama is scheduled to perform with her band on February 6th in the Cutting Room 19 W 24th St New York, NY 10010 for at 9:30pm. For press tickets to review the performance or inquiries about featuring Adama, please call 561.506.6530. Also visit Adama’s websites online at http://www.adamaworld.com/ or www.myspace.com/adama . Do not miss a chance to watch this rising star perform live.

For Immediate Release

Ella Brown Couture launches its website to the world.

The New website highlights the 2008 Ad Campaign. The Collection is in over

15 stores across America and 2 stores in Asia

 

LOS ANGELES, CA January 14, 2008 — Ella Brown Couture, one of the newest Haute Couture designers to meet the industry has just launched its website. www.ellebrowncouture.com. With over nineteen stores (which include Jonathan in California, La Contessa in Arizona and Mark Shale in Chicago to name a few) caring over 25 varying pieces of the Ella Brown Couture line, the collection incorporates a variety of styles and rich fabrics. The mood is very luxurious, glamorous with a very raw edge. Every piece has an exotic extra bold statement.

 

Started by former Chicago residence Adefunke Adegbola in 2004, Ade moved to Los Angles California in 2006 to develop the brand into something even bigger and better. Her fall 2007 collection was showcased at the Miami
fashion week and Chicago fashion week respectively in 2007; she is an associate member of the GENART foundation of Los Angeles. From the perfectly sophisticated femininity of the Ella Brown designs, one would never know she had no official formal training before starting the Ella Brown Couture label. Adefunke Adegbola trusted her instincts before getting into the fashion business and it all started at a very young age growing up in Nigeria.

"I've always wanted to be a fashion designer! I will cut, chop, snip, sew and tack anything that came my way.
My mother is one of my biggest inspirations, she is such a creative and crafty individual and there is always a nice touch that shows her personal style and the way she puts colors together. I love working with fabrics that compliments a woman’s anatomy, think fluid silk, Brazilian Chamuese, delicate chiffon and predominantly jewel tone with some spice of a huge gem stone hiding somewhere."

Ella Brown Couture is scheduled to be at Magic Women Apparels Show in Las Vegas in February, Accessories the show in New York and Texas in January and February respectively and in the Scene in Dallas, Texas. The collection is about styling the woman who loves to stand out and has an appreciation for luxury.
