The case is no different with this emerging singer/songwriter from Phillipsburg New Jersey.Pentley Holmes is attempting to break out of the small town by exposing delicate fragments of his soul through poetic lyrics and soaring vocals over simple melodies that warm his music and drive it straight into the heart of the listener.Most recently he has just finished the recording of his first E.P. “Dreams”. this is the first of his recorded material that he will be releasing to the public. Set out to share with anyone who will listen he currently is warming up the local open mic circuit in the Lehigh Valley and other surrounding areas while preparing for his first mini tour of the tri state area.After experiencing a genuine excited reaction from listeners after several performances he has decided to take music more seriously and perfect his craft and hone his skill set to provide a delicate listening experience.” http://www.pentleyholmes.com/

PRESENTING: "L.I.V. Ent. Music" / Hip Hop Artists of FUZION 2013

Started out in the back of a classroom scheming the plan out, but now the dream of Luis Bardales Jr. (El Princeton Beatz) & Walter Rodriguez (G'Rodz) became reality. In the beginning Luis started working with Richard Ruiz (Young Collision) after Walter Rodriguez graduated from high school. Walter and Luis didn't have communication after a while and they both took on their own path. Luis worked with Richard recording him and they published their first song "Keep Grinding" on YouTube. Luis at this time was not interested in creating a music group until he upgraded his equipment. He later got in contact with Devan Battle (Da'Von) and Brian Able (Able) through Facebook and through text. They produced the song "Dirty Dance" together and from then on they decided to create a music group. "Dirty Dance" became their first hit working together and recording in the studio. "Dirty Dance" got the attention of Walter Rodriguez and he contacted Luis right away. Walter got together with Luis and recorded the track "hip-hop back" ft. Able & Young Collision which was featured on their mixtape "Unstoppable." The group stood with the name Royal Phantom Records for a while until they decided to keep it as a local label name and they started to call themselves L.I.V.E. Music. After "Unstoppable" was published, Bernie Carrasco (J_Sins) got in contact with Luis and showed him his singing talent. Bernie is now featured in two hits which are "What Love Is" & "My Moment." It was a hard loss when Able had to leave the group due to a lack of time, but that brought in the most recent music artist Jonathan Pratt (Credaith). The music group is now known as L.I.V. Ent. Music but the members occasionally call themselves "L.I.V.E. Music" for short in their songs. They also have received their first interview with Prolifick Radio on December 14, 2012. Now currently the group is working on publishing their best remixes to the most popular songs while working on their next mixtape with all original songs. Their first gig was at Catch 22 in Allentown, PA where El Princeton got into contact with a local New York artist known as Mo the Goon. They worked on the song "Stuntin" and performed it for the first time at Catch. Later on Mo the Goon moved down to Allentown and joined L.I.V. Ent. Music. Da'Von changed his name to dbatt and had to leave the group due to personal issues. Before he left the group he gave a major contribution once El Princeton made the track "Lesbian" and got into contact with Kay Love. After "Lesbian" became the word around town El Princeton took in Kay Love into the group. Now L.I.V. Ent. Music is working on music videos and getting more gigs.
