There's no better example of East Coast/West Coast divide than with the band Dispatch. Dispatch is an East Coast college staple. You couldn't get a diploma from an Eastern Time Zone college in the late 90s if you hadn't spent one night baking out to Bang Bang or Silent Steeples. But if you went to school on the West Coast...the mere mention of the term "dispatch" made you think the cops were on the way to break up your party. The only people on the West Coast who even know who the band were...are transplants from the East Coast who brought their box of CDs with them. You never heard their albums thrown into mixes because they were always outvoted in Southern California by Sublime and in Northern California by Primus...and in Pac Norwest by Soundgarden (still!). Maybe a 12 year hiatus is what the band needs to seep into the audio pores of the rest of the country.

"We felt that it was important to get ahead of what is not working in the music for media industry. Advertising revenue is spread out, budgets are shrinking, YouTube and new media is overturning traditional TV, its just a fact. We decided to go into business directly with our clients and composers and create a work platform that was direct and could build value and income for all involved."
