Join Martini In The Morning and Declare Your Independence From Boring Radio

    NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA, August 06, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Standard Media Group has created a dynamic Internet radio station that delivers the most progressive form of The Great American Songbook available anywhere in the world. The Standard Media Group tailors its format to be the most contemporary sound of Standards and classic tunes. It is the home of The Lounge Sound where "Timeless Classics" meet today's "Contemporary Cool." The Lounge Sound, AKA Martini In The Morning (MITM) is currently broadcast over the internet. Chuck Hillier VP of Syndicated Solution said that "MITM represent the Hottest, Hippest, Coolest and youngest version of the format in history".

Martini in the Morning is committed to keeping The Greatest Songs Ever Written on the radio. The Lounge Sound has created a niche market that looks to capitalize on the Baby Boomers and younger generations that are disenchanted with local radio broadcast programming and other mainstream media. The unique programming and use of new talent gives MITM a broad range of audience.

One unique feature of The Lounge Sound is the fact that it is one of the VERY FEW web-based radio stations to feature a LIVE morning show. Martini In The Morning...hosted by the legendary programmer Brad "Martini" Chambers. Brad takes calls from listeners, interviews artists, orchestrates countless features throughout the show and basically "lives the lifestyle" that separates the station from so many "jukeboxes" on the internet.

Another benefit to the audience is the exposure to new music...by both well known and emerging artists alike. There is a selection of new and upcoming artists that bridge the gap of the next generation of Lounge Sound listeners. New artists like Michael Buble, Jamie Cullum, and Jonny Blu are gaining large followings from younger and older generations who appreciate and love the style MITM delivers 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Michael Buble, Norah Jones, Harry Connick Jr., & Diana Krall all provide hip, new takes on the Classics. Rod Stewart, Bette Midler and dozens of others have revived smoldering careers by bringing their unique styles to this sensational body of work.

MartiniInTheMorning.com not only plays the greatest music ever written it has one of the fastest growing websites in the world and now ranks in the top 200,000 websites all sites. It is the spot to go to stay involved with the Martini Lifestyle. The website develops a worldwide community through chat rooms, blogs and providing the information needed to keep people involved.
