Press Release Body:
Mongkok, Kowloon, April 02, 2008 -- Today, Red Mountain Records (RMR), Hong Kong,
announced it has set release dates for its first studio album. RMR is the only
company in Hong Kong making English language music for the international market,
which sets them apart from the crowd. A position that has proved difficult, until
now.

Although releasing a compilation CD in 2006 through its distribution division, RMR
has finally done what it set out to do, make original music. The album has a quality
rarely heard today thanks to the 1000 hours of production in Hong Kong, so the wait
should be worth it.

In 2007 RMR had to let 2 Artists go for not being able to meet the high standards
required for their projects. RMR then found success in singer/songwriter Neil Cousin
who had the voice and musicianship to meet the ambitions of the company. The
production began in November 2007 and was completed in February 2008.

"It was not nice to have to cancel 2 projects last year, but those Artists could not
perform to our standard when taking the demos to final productions, so we had no
choice. We set out to make world-class music that stands the test of time, and this
first release exceeded everyone's expectations, so we are very pleased" says General
Manager Jack Chan.

The new album, named "Double-Life Taxi" is an Art-Rock project that is reminiscent
of Lou Reed and David Bowies work in the late 60's and early 70's. The album will
feature just 10 of the 14 tracks made and marks the first official release for Dan
Puzny as a Producer, who unofficially signed Neil Cousin to RMR back in 2006.

"He has great talent, he plays his guitar brilliantly and sings perfectly with a
beautiful vocal range, what more could I hope for?" comments the Producer. "He wrote
all of the songs, played more than half of the music on the album, which is hard
work for a solo Artist".

The album is set for release in electronic format in April, with the first country
being Malaysia on the 21st followed by other Asian countries before the Global CD
release. The release starts with Asia, but RMR plan to make it available in over 50
countries by the end of the year.

The album can be heard in full on www.neilcousin.com until April 21. Neil Cousin
will be touring to support the release of the album.

Mountain Records formed its Distribution division, Red Mountain Black, in early 2006
to fill the need for original foreign music in Asia. Red Mountain Records Ltd is an
