Jason Evangelho’s Summary

Sometimes it's best to let others speak for you. I've had the pleasure of working with the colleagues below, and the honor of having prior testimonials from them. While these don't directly apply to my current position, it's my intent for them to speak to my character, vision, and work ethic.

“Jason is a powerhouse in the podcasting world. He has used his passion for outstanding music to create a network of musicians and listeners who can share and create the next generation of classic music using the new-media version of the old standard record company promotion system... podcasting. Jason isn't stopping, and continues to bring the world new music in a new and fresh way. If you love music and want to find the next big thing... look to Jason. He is sure to have something new and great in his pipe!”
--Derek Colanduno, Host/Producer, Batpig Studios


“Jason is one of those rare visionaries possessing ethical foresight. Although podcasting is in its infancy, he's fully aware that what transpires now will shape the future of the industry. With that in mind, he conducts himself with ardency, integrity, and care. Altruism is sorely lacking in the music biz, but not in Jason. I'm thrilled to know him and honored to call him partner and friend.”
--Ren Tyler, May 12, 2006
(Worked directly with Jason at Insomnia Radio Podcast)

“I've known Jason for approximately a year in a professional capacity. I can personally attest to his solid work ethic having worked with him on several projects including KillYourFM PSP magazine and ResonateTV. Jason is very easy going and easy to get along with. He has a creative vision that is extremely ambitious and I am confident he has the tenacity to see it through.”
