Tech of the Coast & Mastermind Productions have joined the family of labels distributed by Too Lost.
Pre-save Joel MASTAMIND Johnson #Souls #Souls10YearAnniversary digitally remastered TODAY from TECH OF THE COAST https://too.fm/b2pjxnq be ready for release day 4-19-24!
The first release to come from Tech of the Coast & Mastermind Productions will be the 10 year anniversary release of BMI singer songwriter, Joel MASTAMIND Johnson's solo instrumental rock record "SOULS." Look for the album on all major music services on April 19th 2024 and preorder the album THIS WEEK!
Thank you to our partner Too Lost for giving us an independent voice in the music business as a rock & pop music label serving talent worldwide from Sonoma County, CA. I can't say enough good things about the process of releasing music with our new distributor. They were more than helpful with setting up our release and making sure all the metadata was right before anything went out.
We are glad to be a music distributor, recording studio, remote audio services provider and record label with over a decade of experience serving independent artists and major artists alike. If you want to work with us, send us a message. We are on all major music platforms worldwide. There are now better options in the domestic market for record distribution for indie labels and we picked the one we felt fit us and our talent best. Stay tuned for more news and releases from Tech of the Coast and Mastermind Productions in the next year.
As of the date of this notice MAR 24 @ 7 AM all digital distribution on all services outside of our current distribution partner have been discontinued in agreement with the new digital distribution contract. We will no longer be distributing music directly on ReverbNation on any distribution services including but not limited to YouTube, SoundCloud, and any 3rd party sites and now all music will be carried by our label Tech of the Coast on our distributor Too Lost who services most DSPs around the world and works with indie labels to provide distribution to their artists. This will allow us to offer distribution to artists we record. This way we will operate as a label and continue to be a service provider to talent in the industry. We don't want to compete with our own distributor so our music videos and former music only content have been removed from distribution by all previous partners and will be re launched on release day by Tech of the Coast & Too Lost distribution. The exciting news is we will be back on most stores around the world and also eligible for music charts when our release comes out. One door closes as another opens. Stay tuned for more from TOTC and thanks for supporting my latest music release.

I'd like to thank Ultimate Ears Pro for having Joel Mastamind Johnson as an in ear monitor endorser for a year! Thanks for being supporters since 2007 when we were last signed and working with them when Tech of the Coast studios & Mastermind Productions SJJR LLc were new as an indie label. We had Brad and Mike as our reps and we worked together for 5 years and then I took a multi year hiatus. One year ago, I started my audio degree program and signed with UE Pro as an engineer. I'm now celebrating a year of working with UE Pro. We are in the studio using their UE 5 Pro and UE 6 Universal in ear monitors on my 10th anniversary release of my solo album Joel Mastamind Johnson 'SOULS' out April 19th 2024! In 2024 we will be using the UE Reference Remastered AMBIENT in ear monitors for mastering, mixing live sound, and performance live. The UE 6 will stay in our vocal booth for any emcees to have a hard hitting monitor for tracking while the UE 5 Pro will get used for tracking in the main room and tracking artists who are using the 6 Pro. Cool news! UE pro now has universal fit IEMs for anyone to access quality earbuds. Check them out! - Tech of the Coast/Mastermind Productions 2024

We have been operating under our label Mastermind Productions since 2007 and in 2024 we re launched Tech of the Coast as a studio and music label. What music do we create here? We score games, films, write records, singles, and engineer music for clients. We have many beneficial partnerships we have made use of as a student run record label. We have been educational status since the 90s and we are continuing that tradition by working with fellow students to create our content.
