12.12.12 D.I.A (DIVERSE INTENSIFIED AUDIO) is the epic center for the Global Rock Revolution. D.I.A is DIA Records (label), Global Rock Showcase (events), Fantra Zine (publication) and Street Ragz (clothing). Social Networks -- Myspace and Facebook have made the now conventional music site severely obsolete especially for the indie entity. Watched traffic to D.I.A's website reduced from 2000+ daily visitors to low two-figures while Myspace evolved into a social network monster including setting benchmarks for the muzik biz in many areas. So what about Facebook? Currently FB is the #1 "Tower Of Babel." Fact! Reguarding artist development and promotion, despite popularity, FB is still no where close to Myspace in targeting people with an impact. Now, what about upgrading DIA-Inc.com to a cutting-edge site? Thought of switching to a (sterile) Jamroom-type site but dude, we still love the grit of "old-skool" sites for a variant of reasons. One should not really give a pig a bath man... Check out a few D.I.A-related recordings at DIA Records (I) - Myspace . Global Rock Showcase . Street Ragz Clothing . Fantra Zine .

![]() GLOBAL ROCK SHOWCASE: The Global Rock Showcase is the original Punky Reggae Ska Dub Party with Funky Metalic Hiphop segments mixed in sometimes. This is the foundation concert brand of it's kind. It doesn't matter if the Global Rock Showcase brand is imitated underground or overground from Ventura - Cali to Wilmington - NC.; actually -- it is quite flattering to see hedz exploit the concept. It is even more flattering when pillars like Billboard Magazine acknowledged dubbing Global Rock a "...crossbreed...;" June 30, 2005, CNET TV tagged Live Aid Concert "New Global Rock Concert"; and sweeeeet to see music publishing giant BMI bringing a "...Global Rock Scene..." to it's Lollapalooza Stage August 3-5, 2006, in Chicago - IL, USA. D.I.A's Global Rock Showcase is the profound muzikal revolution forever on!! Muzik cannot go beyond "Global Rock" on this third rock from the sun.
