New Remodeled Shaolin Records PRESS ROOM

Shaolin Records produces music, videos, and interactive books since 1984.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
North Hollywood, California – October 21, 2014 -Shaolin Records, the independent record label of Shaolin Communications, is releasing the new album by American Zen, America’s first Buddhist rock band, titled End of the Line, recorded in a 1996 Toyota Tacoma 4-cylinder truck.

URL for this Press Release is: http://www.shaolinrecords.com/press/shREC_PR/shREC_PR2014-10-21.html

For more information:
Richard Del Connor, Record Producer

Newly Designed Digital Press Room of Shaolin Records

Press Room of Shaolin Records
http://www.ShaolinRecords.com/press/

The Press Room is the Left Menu Bar
As journalists and editors travel the webpages of the Shaolin Records Press Room, they will have access to the various EPK links per project or artist. The left menu bar contains links to the press releases and newsletters associated with each artist or project.

When the left menu bar disappears on some webpages of the press room there should always be the main links in the yellow menu bar below the header of each press room page. These orange menu bar links above the headlines include:

EPK index
Album EPKs
Book EPKs
Movie EPKs
Music Video EPKs
Website EPKs

From these six EPKs, the proper EPK being sought should be found.

Some EPKs are several EPKs. The "Album EPK" for the End of the Line album by American Zen is the main EPK with links to the other three EPKs for the End of the Line album: Graphics EPK, One-Sheet EPK, and Songlist EPK. All four of these combined EPKs create the complete EPK for the End of the Line album. Each project varies whether there are enough graphics to require a separate graphics EPK or whether the project contains any songs to create a Songlist EPK.

The One-Sheet EPKs are patterned after the traditional record company EPKs of the 1980s. Sales, distribution, and promotion information are supplied to distributors to encourage more sales and cooperation during promotions, tours, or events.

The Songlist EPKs are used to break down the information about the creation or performance of the songs on the record. Poems in books also use this Songlist EPK per book to provide background information or illumination about the poems.

Graphics EPKs are scrapbooks with high resolution photos, music samples, or promotional art provided for newspapers, magazines, and feature writers needing these items for printing.

The information within the EPKs will be expanding as we upload more images, documents, and print masters. As journalists request resources we will add them into the EPKs for your convenient access.

Webmaster Richard Del Connor redesigned the press room templates to have the blue sky with Chinese clouds. He kept the bamboo background for the remainder of the website explaining, "The press and publicity are in the sky. Like our audience, the bamboo is on the ground."

About American Zen
American Zen is The Hippy Coyote who fronts the band on flute and electric guitar. Coyote is the "Kung Fu Cowboy" who studies Shaolin Kung Fu, and with his recent record, LEVEL 4 = Kung Fu Cowboy PART 2 has become the world's most astounding musician playing drums, electric bass, slide guitars, electric guitars, flute, harmonica, and a variety of other instruments and percussion. Coyote no longer performs or records acoustic guitar, since losing his Alvarez 12-string on December 3, 2009. However, with hundreds of songs recorded with his acoustic guitar since 1974, Coyote says he prefers his Marshall amplifier and wah-wah pedal now. All songs, lyrics, and poetry are composed by The Hippy Coyote, who has also written the novel, SID'S PLACE, and created the websites for each LEVEL of American Zen's ascent toward Heaven on their Zen Buddhist journey to Nirvana.

About Buddha Zhen
Zhen Shen-Lang "Truth Spirit-Wolf" or Spirit Wolf of Truth (The Chinese always put last name first.)
Buddha Zhen was recognized for his teaching skills while an Advanced Student of Tai Mantis Federation in early 1980s. However, Buddha Zhen, then known as Richard O'Connor, even passed up opportunities to perform with David Carradine, only considering his Shaolin Kung Fu to be a hobby. After moving to Utah in 1991, unable to find work in the record business or movie business, Kung Fu and Tai Chi became the only way for Buddha Zhen to support himself in Utah while being a Mr. Mom to two kids. Shaolin Chi Mantis was founded in 1992 and in 1996 Master Zhen created the Tai Chi Youth nonprofit 501(c)(3) charity organization for troubled youth. Buddha Zhen founded the Buddha Kung Fu school in 2008 which includes the Buddha Tai Chi, Shaolin Kids , and 12 Step 12 Week Kung Fu Bootcamp programs.
