g8wave drums up mobile deal with Rush

Integrated mobile media company g8wave announced an agreement with Canadian prog-rock icons Rush to release original mobile "drum tones" created by the trio's drummer Neil Peart. g8wave currently provides mobile content distribution and mobile fan communities and storefronts for performing artists including Metallica, 311, Linkin Park and Mandy Moore--the firm said it believes the drum tone deal is the first of its kind. "This is a perfect example of using mobile to bring dynamic content to fans of a specific band and artist," said g8wave chairman and chief strategy officer Brad Mindich.
