PROFILE

Name: Elsa Hill

Birthdate: 03.11.1983

Currently lives in: Portland, USA

DJ Style: Energy Trance / Vocal Trance / Uplifting & Progressive Trance

With the ability to rock the decks empowering the dance floor with her female energy, in the past three years Elsa Hill has played all around the west coast of the United States, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Nevada and Portland. Since December of 2005, she has been featured on Armin van Buuren’s weekly radio show, A State of Trance countless times. As well as receiving massive support on DI.FM for her guest mixes.

Originally born in San Francisco, Elsa moved to Portland after the big earthquake of 1989. As a teenager she spent much of her time learning how to read music, play piano and sing in her studies. After visiting a club in Portland she was captivated by what the dj was doing. Intrigued, she set out to buy her own equipment and get started.

Six months later in 2003, her first performance was in the middle of the Nevada desert at an event called, 'Burning Man.' With her powerful sets and high energy, she unites the crowd demonstrating how a female DJ knows how to shake the floor. Soon after in 2004, she performed in Seattle, Washington opening for Rabbit in the Moon, Jon the Dentist and DJ Micro. Recently her sets in Los Angeles and San Francisco have given her the opportunity to share the decks with DJ Irene.

With audiences only begging for more and having been booked all over the west coast as a DJ, it was only natural Elsa would be drawn to composing music as a classically trained musician. Teaming up with Robert Nickson in 2005, Elsa's first release, 'Close Your Eyes' came out in April of 2006. It quickly won the heart of Armin van Buuren and was signed to his label, Armada. Soon after, Elsa’s second single 'No Need to Come Back' with Leon Bolier would also be signed to Armada. This landed her on Armin’s compilation, A State of Trance 2006 giving her recognition from all over the world. With two releases in 2006 and new projects on the way, be sure to catch Elsa as she starts her conquest in 2007 to play in America and the world.

Stay tuned for Elsa Hill! Caring for what you believe in will always get you farther.

26/08/08 Developing: Apple Investigating Chinese iTunes Store Block

Apple is now examining why its iTunes Store is inaccessible to Chinese users, according to information emerging Friday.  "We are still investigating," a representative told news service AFP.

Earlier this week, users started noticing that the store was inaccessible from inside China, and subsequent traceroutes pointed to a governmental block.  The reason for the block is not entirely clear, though the presence of a pro-Tibetan album download is strongly suspected.

The next moves are likely to set the tone for future content "discussions," specifically those tied to albums like Songs for Tibet.  In most cases, the Chinese government demands compliance with various censorship rules, a pill that most American companies must swallow.

 Terrestrial Radio Revenues Down 6% In July...

US-based terrestrial radio revenues slid 6 percent in July, according to figures published by the Radio Advertising Bureau (RAB).  The tally, published late last week, showed a 5 percent decline in local advertising revenues, and a 15 percent decline in broader, national advertising.  That was offset by a 6 percent increase in off-air revenues, though the pace of that growth has slowed.  The revenue information is based on a sample of one-hundred stations, collected by accounting firm Miller Kaplan Arase & Co.

The July assessment follows a string of declines during earlier months, according to RAB reports.  In June, the group reported a broader decline of 9 percent, and May produced a drop of 8 percent.  In fact, the industry has been posting declines for the past fifteen consecutive months, a trend that predates the current economic malaise.  "Radio has entered and seems stuck in a new, discouraging territory with the combined challenges of a secular slide and cyclical recessionary times," commented CL King & Associates analyst Jim Boyle.

 A Bull Among Bears: Newbury Comics Expanding...

Most companies cut costs, shed employees, and table expansion plans during economic downtimes.  But for some ambitious players, economic malaise sets the perfect backdrop for an expansion - and market share grab.

In Boston, Newbury Comics is now adopting that aggressive, and more risky, approach.  "Every time the economy goes into a recession, that's when you want to invest," company cofounder and chief executive Mike Dreese recently told the Boston Globe.  "Virgin just pulled out of town, Tower is bankrupt. If we're going to expand, we should do it now."

Indeed, the company just opened a mega-store in the Boston suburb of Norwood.  The massive facility, a former car dealership, offers the perfect space for shows and latte bars, as well as merchandise like clothing, vinyl, DVDs and games.  The company also added another store in the city, at Faneuil Hall, a move that cuts an aggressive profile.  

Some executives would have trouble stomaching that level of risk, and Newbury is feeling its share of pain.  The company pointed to flat sales during the past four years, and a profit dip of 10 percent last year, though Dreese confidently pointed to a diversified product set.
26/08/08 ...And Vinyl Sales Keep Increasing..

The CD is leading the plunge in recording sales, though the decades-old vinyl keeps showing strength.  The latest positive report comes from Newbury Comics, part of a broader profile in the Boston Globe.  "There’s a huge resurgence in vinyl," chain chief executive Mike Dreese reiterated, while pointing to turntable sales of 600-800 over the past two months.*

In total, the company projected vinyl-specific sales of $1.5 million this year, up 70 percent from 2007.  That is part of a steadily ramping format.  In June, Newbury pointed to monthly vinyl revenues of approximately $100,000, or $1.2 million annualized.

The trend is being sparked by a number of factors, including nostalgia, more involved product packaging, greater collectability, and the availability of lower-priced turntables.  Dreese noted that CDs now account for 43 percent of the broader product mix, down from 75 percent ten years ago.
21/08/08 The iPhone Connectivity Issue: Is Apple on the Case?

The second-generation iPhone is easily the hottest device of the summer, though connectivity issues are now softening the hype.  A number of buyers worldwide have been complaining about 3G-specific connectivity problems, including spotty reception and dropped calls.

Now, Apple appears to be addressing the problem through a firmware update, without publicly admitting the issue.  The company recently issued the upgrade - OS 2.0.2 - while reservedly pointed to a 'bug fix' release.  Just recently, reports suggested that the connection issues were linked to a chip from Infineon, though neither company has confirmed the cause.

The firmware update is automatically triggered during an iTunes sync.
