It was founded as <i>Melodious Synth</i> in 2008 by Shayne T. White and underwent a name change to Blazing Edge Productions in 2009. The company specializes in the electronica and new age genres, with such artists as <a href="http://www.binary-sea.com" target="blank">Binary Sea</a>, Distant Oaks, and Shayne White's own solo pseudonym, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/misterwhite123" target="_blank">Mr. White</a>, on its roster. New products are continuing to be released, and distribution channels include such prestigious stores as Amazon.com, CD Baby, and iTunes, among other fine online download stores.</p> <p>Blazing Edge Productions inherited a back catalog of products from Mr. White's late mother, Deborah L. White, who was the founder of the Celtic music group Distant Oaks and the owner of the music label Northern Wind Recordings. Both entities ceased to exist in 2006 due to Ms. White's death, but Blazing Edge Productions assumed all of Northern Wind's assets and continues to sell the legacy products.</p> <h2 style="width:75%">Promotion</h2> <p>Some of our music is now available for free use on your MP3 blog or podcast via <a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=2509f5a24d25d351b0db6ca01343a38c" target="_blank">MusicAlley</a>.

Bridging the gap between traditional, even classical, music and the latest advances in the electronic and dance scenes, Mr. White's influences range from Irish music to Beethoven to Paul Van Dyk. Mr. White's style features heavy use of analog synthesizers (real ones) both old and new, providing crisp, sonically pleasing, and fantastic soundscapes that push the envelopes of the entire sound frequency spectrum not possible on digital synthesizers. This makes the music feel alive and ready to pull you into its beat.<br /> <br />Mr. White grew up in Sonoma County, California. His musical background began at an early age, beginning with a small Casio keyboard in the early 90s, followed by learning to play the Celtic harp. After ten years of performing Celtic music, Mr. White returned to his electronic music interests that had come out of the New Wave and Synthpop music of the 80s. His first CD release was <a href="opway.html">The Opposite Way</a> in 2003 under the Northern Wind Recordings label. After a long break, he returned with <a href="gem_stars.html">Gem Stars</a> in 2009 and <a href="curve.html">Curve</a> in 2010, both under the Blazing Edge Productions label. He was also involved in the duo Binary Sea, with his brother, <a href="http://www.yarred.com" target="_blank">Jared White</a> (also known as Yarred). Together they released a full album named <a href="compass.html">Compass</a> and an EP called <a href="land_ho.html">Land Ho!</a></td> </tr></table> <p><img src="images/juno-106.png" width="600" height="299" alt="Juno-106" /></p> <p>We thank you for visiting our web site, and we hope you enjoy the products we have to offer.
