Amir Marcus (Producer / A&R).
Genere: All
Born on November 29, 1980,
It was obvious from a very young age that Amir had a great musical sense and an amazing musical ear. His 4th grade math teacher was the one who first discovered his musical gift when she sat down with him at her piano and he began to play. At the age of 14, Marcus started composing music for a rock band that he produced, and during that time he decided to explore and compose music of another genre - Electronic.
Well, it didn’t take long for Marcus to earn quite a reputation in both the Rock and Electronic music scenes.
At the age of 18, Marcus joined the Navy. But don’t think for a second that this hindered his musical creativity. Upon fulfillment of the debt to his country, Marcus closed his first deal with “GMI Records” and released his first Cd entitled “Online” in September of 2000 in association with Eyal Barkan.
In 2001, Marcus played music sets in Radio 99ESC for about a year and in September of 2001, he released his second CD entitled “VIP” on “Black Hole Records” in association with Eyal Barkan and a vinyl entitled “All My Life”.
In 2002, Marcus fulfilled his contract with GMI and was then hired to produce
An amazing opera singer “Vik”, and with this new addition to his repertoire, Marcus was no longer locked into the Electronic and Rock genres and was forced to change his style of music to “World music”.
2003 was the year that Marcus temporarily set down his musical pen, so to speak, and went to work as a sound engineer for theatrical shows, In November of that year, Marcus joined a delegation of actors and singers, touring various US cities such as Chicago, Boston, New York and Los Angeles. In 2004 he made the acquaintance of a man by the name of Solomon Franco and together they shared the same vision of “EXM” Exclusive Music, That same year, Vik’s album won the award for “Best World Music” on ClickSpin.com.
Marcus was also produced Soundtracks for commercial clips of “Microheat” (www.microheat.com), Mighty Key (www.mightykey.com), Insight Moto (www.insightmoto.com) and also working with cellular companies to compose over 1,500 ring tones and two songs for Dana International (Eurovision winner in 98 with the hit DIVA) “Kiss Your Money Bye Bye” and “Sleeping With Me,” both of which were huge hits in the clubs.
In September 2006 Marcus released a song feat Kay entitled “If I Will Let You Go” on the “Evita: Special Hits Vol.2” compilation which was a charity project to help underprivileged children... Others artists involved with this compilation included many other headliner DJ/producers such as Offer Nissim, Dj Vic, Tomer G, and Mike Cruz.
And with this kind of experience, knowledge and talent under his belt, there’s no telling what boundaries and records this talented musical force named Amir Marcus will break in his bright and promising future.

Genere: Electro

After one year, about 5 hours of fresh material, and a retrofit studio, they found themselves doing exactly what they intended to do, going against mainstream ideas and creating a fresh new style of Electro, never before heard in Israel.
Ray Isaac (Singer).
Genere:Pop / Dance
Ray Isaac's inception into the orbit of song writing during his youth is as a consequence of his passion for early 80s music, which monopolised music charts at a time where ostentatious fashion and appearances saturated the minds of fashionistas and die-hard music enthusiastists. As a songwriter, his desire to intoxicate people with his words materialised when the unfortunate death of a close relative urged Ray to express his anguish in a song he penned, titled Goodbye Innocence. Lyrically, the song is stocked with pain, love and redemption words that often describe the spiritual direction of Rays own brand of pop-infused soul. The balance between motivation and fear and awkwardness was highly functional and allowed Ray to soar beyond his own expectations.
It was at this point that his fear soon faded into the rear view mirror and he realised that its only purpose was to show him what he needed to do next. This need became all-consuming and brought this introspective 22-year old to his next endeavour. This is just how he is, very all or nothing. What had emerged was the desire to perform and be in control, he knew he would suddenly ignite and we as listeners would be invited into the world he created - a warm and beautiful, yet technicolour place.
Aidan Rivera (Singer / Dancer).
Genere: Dance / Pop / Soul / RnB
From the early age of 10, young Aidan Rivera knew he wanted to one day dance in a music video. At that time, he knew he had the dance ability, but it wouldn’t be for another 6 years that he would discover he had the vocal talent to allow him to dance in his very own video. Having been in the school band since junior high, Aidan was no stranger to music, but it was while attending youth service at a small Baptist church in Kennedale, Texas that Aidan discovered he had vocal talent and an ear for harmony. Once the youth minister heard the harmonic sounds coming from Aidan, he was soon pulled up to help lead the music portion of the service for the youth group.
At the age of 16, Aidan discovered a local hip hop dance studio where other young people like himself studied, worked and sweat for the love of dance. With just one class, Aidan was hooked. It didn’t take long for him to dominate the stage and capture the attention of those who watched him perform. He possessed a spark in his eye and an energy that commanded the attention of the audience when he danced. At age 17, Aidan left the Kennedale church as a result of a relocation and for the next 6-7 years, dancing would dominate his free time when he wasn’t studying in college or working.
Though successful in his dancing endeavors, in 2004 Aidan realized that he had been neglecting the vocal gift God had given him and decided to begin singing again. He started studying with a vocal coach and learning to use his instrument in the way he was destined to.
In February of 2007, Aidan took a leap of faith and abandoned his successful IT office job to pursue his performance career full time. That same month, he graced the stage of the Crystal Palace Casino (Bahamas) as one of the lead male vocalists/dancers in an FW Productions show called Jambalaya. While in the Bahamas, he continued to train his voice and transferred his comfort and dominance of the stage in dance over to the vocal performance side.
Following the conclusion of the contract in the Bahamas, Aidan met Amir Marcus and Moshe Fain, the dynamic duo also known as the FM Project. Aidan, being a big of Dance/Electronic, R&B and Pop music, instantly took to the musical styles of the team. While listening to Aidan’s vocal demo, Amir heard something in his voice and wanted to work with him. Shortly after, Aidan joined the FM Project team and the rest of the story will soon be history…
