Fliptrack Heats Up Synching Slideshow Space by Adding Music Powerhouse APM, New Artists and Labels

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Fliptrack, a leader in user- generated musical slideshows and videos, has partnered with APM Music, the world's leading production music library, a joint venture of EMI music publishing and BMG music publishing, to bolster its already extensive popular music catalog by 225,000 songs and recordings. The move creates the largest and most diverse mashup music library available today. Launched less than two months ago, over a half million visitors have already visited Fliptrack and created tens of thousands of slideshows, making the company a frontrunner in the music slideshow arena.

"As the leader in production music, APM Music is a fantastic resource for Fliptrack's community of half a million users looking to legally create great music videos and slideshows from their visual content," said APM president, Adam Taylor. "With APM, Fliptrack now offers the most comprehensive legal, music library available, giving users more variety and the very best mashup experience."

In addition to APM's large catalog of rock, classical, blues, folk, family, spiritual and holiday music, tracks from up and coming indie-bands from artists on Indie911 -- an online social network, artist service provider and music store -- can also be accessed. APM and leading video game publisher Electronic Arts also recently teamed up to make available the scores from many top selling EA video games, including "The Sims," the "Medal of Honor" franchise, "The Lord of the Rings(R)" series, the "Harry Potter(R)" series, and "Tiger Woods PGA Tour," giving Fliptrack users even more variety.

Fliptrack has further diversified its popular music catalog by offering titles from V2 Records distributed label, Fania Records, which provides an extensive selection of current and recurrent Latin pop titles. Fliptrack will also be launching this month artist features with heavy metal group, All That Remains through Razor & Tie Records, as well as featuring the new single, "It Hertz" from The Crystal Method's upcoming release "Drive," out June 26.

A new partnership with social networking site Bebo will allow Fliptrack to include songs from "Bebo Bands," which offers exclusive Indie music featured on Bebo. Additionally, the company has expanded its music catalog with existing partners, including TommyBoy, Ministry of Sound, V2 and Nettwerk. Fliptrack will feature rotating selections of its 240,000 total tracks according to season and user requests.

"In less than two month's time, Fliptrack has made its mark in the world of user-generated content," said Stewart Putney, CEO of Fliptrack. "Our strong emphasis on music, ease of use and sophisticated technology have truly set us apart in what is becoming an increasingly crowded space and we will continue to be aggressive to give our users the best possible experience."
