There are thousands of producers world wide trying to sell beats fast, struggling to find a new source of income from their beats, and with the rise of the digital era some believe that it's becoming impossible to sell beats without the use of a record label. Since back in the “good old days” everybody flocked to labels in order to make a few bucks, nowadays people are having some serious trouble adjusting.
What if I told you that the new industry is completely online and that if you want to sell your beats the best way to do so is using the internet? Making beats is becoming more and more affordable with programs such as Fruity Loops or Reason, and that means that record labels are being bombarded with beat CD's and demo tapes more than at any other point in history. Even back in the day it was hard to contact a label, but now they have huge mountains of mail piled high every week. Where is your package in that endless mound anyway?

The origins of Japanese animation, often referred to as anime, began in the early 20th century, with the first known anime dating from 1917. Original pioneers of this highly popular art form include Seitaro Kitayama, Shimokawa Oten and Jun'ichi Kouchi, who developed techniques being employed by filmmakers in the United States, Germany and France.
Seitaro Kitayama produced both chalkboard and paper animation, founding the “Kitayama Eiga Seisakujo”, his own animation studio. However, unlike Shimokawa Oten and Jun'ichi Kouchi, a large corporation did not back Kitayama. The animation studio that he founded sadly closed due to the lack of financial success.
