MIAMI, FL (PRWEB) September 7, 2004 -- In an effort to share the uniqueness and authenticity of indie music, MyGloblalSound (MGS) and Sonicbids recently released the compilation CD-MGS BACK-TO-SCHOOL MIX DISC- VOL. I. Over eight thousand college freshmen attending Miami-Dade College, University of Miami and Florida International University will be direct recipients of this dynamic CD which features some of the most unique, musical sounds found throughout the world.

As the creator of the Electronic Press Kit (EPK) platform that enables music industry professionals to send and receive press kits online, Sonicbids partnered with MGS to feature twenty-one independent artists and musicians on the CD.
