<p> It isn’t so rare to find actual talent in the world of music today if you look hard enough. It’s when an independent artist combines multiples genres with their own flair for music that an original, catchy sound comes out. </p>
<p>This is completely the case with indie musicians such as Eileen Carey, a country-pop-blues success story right out of Cleveland, Ohio. Influenced by a variety of artists from Motown to English rock, Eileen is an artist that has put in the hard work and perseverance that is rarely seen in a world of American Idol and computer voice technology. She displays a pure, raw gift with every note that she sings. </p>
<p>With the support of her family, she made her way to the Los Angeles music scene to dabble in a little bit of acting, but mostly put herself out there for fans that seemed to form every time they heard her. Proficient in many instruments, but specifically the male dominated percussion, she moves past modern technology to a more simple time, when either you could play and sing, or you couldn’t. A time when musicians weren’t made- they were born. </p>
<p>
          <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nu6U3hAxSVM&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
            <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nu6U3hAxSVM&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object><br />
          &nbsp;</p>
<p>Currently, Eileen Carey is in Nashville, playing and writing with the big boys. She not only has the talent, but the know-how in music industry concepts such as finance and marketing to push herself to go further. She utilizes economically savvy companies, such as <a href="http://www.abetdisc.com">Abet Disc, to replicate her music CDs</a>, with the highest quality as their number one priority. She knew that when she needed her album cover to be replicated by the best, so that everyone would see her creativity and beauty shining through, that a company like <a href="http://www.abetdisc.com">Abet Disc</a> could make it happen. It takes smarts for this kind of organization, and Eileen Carey has them.</p>
<p><a href="http://themusicmom.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.eileencarey.com/images/music-mom-banner-500.png" alt="the music mom .com" width="286" height="103" border="0"></a></p>
<p>Her latest album Movin On has already had massive success, starting with the hit single “That Was Her This Is Now”, an awesome tune that every person, male or female, can relate to. Her music has been played on radio stations all over the country, and reviewed all over the world! It’s hard, if not impossible, to find a negative review of her anywhere. The explanation for this should be obvious. She’s good, and you just can’t fake that. </p>
<p>Independent artists are often tossed to the side in the mind of consumers, thinking that money and big-shot manufacturers are the ones to be trusted. Yet, they should remember that fancy lights and someone using a machine to fix a voice can only take them so far. It is the musicians like Eileen Carey that create the backbone of the music scene and inspire us all to listen closer next time, and we may hear something we like.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="left"><font size="+0"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><font size="2"><strong>Step 1: Pre-Mastering</strong><br />
In this stage <a target="_blank" href="http://www.abetdisc.com">Abet Disc</a> inspects the format and structure of the media that is supplied by the customer.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2: Mastering<br />
</strong></font></font></font><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">A substrate treated with a photosensitive layer is prepared.<br />
An LBR (Laser Beam Recorder) is used to transfer your data/music and forms the pits and tracks onto the substrate.<br />
A developing solution enables the zones that were exposed by the laser to be removed.<br />
</font><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">The substrate is placed into a vacuum deposition chamber and covered with a layer of silver.<br />
The end product is a metalized glass master. It is then inspected and analyzed for electrical signal properties.<br />
</font><strong><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><br />
Step 3: Electroplating<br />
</font></strong><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">Glass master is mounted and immersed into a solution of nickel sulfamate.<br />
A process of electrolysis takes place between two electrodes, the anode and the cathode. This creates a nickel layer which is separated from the glass master in order to obtain the stamper.<br />
The stamper is rinsed, dried &amp; covered with a protective film.<br />
The back face is sanded and polished in order to prepare it for pressing.<br />
The stamper is then punched in the center and the outside and checked for uniform thickness.</p>
<p></font><strong><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">Step 4: Molding</font></strong><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><br />
The stamper is placed in a special mold and clamped together under very high pressure. Molten polycarbonate is then injected into the mold and after a few seconds of cooling, a clear disc is ejected, now containing the information or pit track from the stamper.</p>
<p>A fine layer of aluminum is sputtered onto the surface of the transparent disc. This allows the disc to be read by the reflection of the laser on the layer of information.<br />
A fine layer of clear lacquer is then deposited on the metallic surface of the disc, then dried under a UV lamp. This is done in order to protect the CD and<br />
prepare it for screen or offset printing.</p>
<p>Each CD is then inspected for physical imperfections and common molding flaws using a high speed camera inspection system.<br />
All orders are tested at the beginning and the end through the High Tech Optical Testing Equipment to Phillips and Sony specifications.<br />
</font><strong><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><br />
Step 5: Pre-Press</font></strong><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><br />
The film or file is initially reviewed by trained graphic staff and checked for conformity, colors, size, resolution, fonts etc&#8230;<br />
Pre-stretched screens are coated with a light sensitive emulsion, dried and measured.<br />
Once dried, a film positive is positioned upon the coated screen and exposed in a light unit for a set time.<br />
After exposure, the developed emulsion protected by the film is washed away with water. This leaves a hardened stencil with print area free of exposed emulsion.<br />
</font><strong><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><br />
Step 6: Screen Printing</font></strong><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><br />
Press-ready screens are mounted on the printing press.<br />
Ink is placed on the screen and a squeegee passes across the image area pressing ink through the screen and onto the CD surface. One screen is required for each color.<br />
Once the ink is applied, it is instantly cured or dried under a UV light before the next color is printed.<br />
Each CD is inspected through sophisticated optics for correct inner hub identification and print quality.</font></p>
