Some time ago, Stretch The Skies merged with another company, Vision Music USA. This merger came about due to like minded companies believing in a common code of ethics and excellence. As a result, in the list of testimonials below, you will see comments from the long, individual histories of both companies, as well as the most current testimonials from recent times, post merger.
Hope this message finds you well... I was very impressed by the placement Golden had on the I-Tunes site, and I believe your company did an outstanding job putting Golden’s album out there for digital...Thanks! - Mark P. Sutter, FreeFlo Records, Inc. -
Some people merely have ideas. Others make ideas into new realities.
Reality-making takes discipline, perseverance, honesty, courage, and the unrelenting ability to deliver. Plus the intelligence and organizational skill to create a delivery machine.
Ken Fournier and his organization have ideas then make them happen. They ARE a delivery machine. - Howard Bloom -
Just wanted to
take this time to tell you how great your staff is - both Josh & Matt have
been a real pleasure to talk to - great customer service, plenty of
patience, and they have been catering to my needs which makes my band & I
feel appreciated. Looking forward to doing plenty of business with STS in
the future & I'll be spreading the word. - Tage from Anon -
Thanks a million you guys do great work - I'm serious you guys really go the extra distance. We are honored to be working with Stretch the Skies.

Our company has been working with Ken Fournier and Stretch the Skies since December 2004. Our first project with them involved an extensive new product launch to support our franchisees’ transition to a new method of delivering our services. We quickly became comfortable with the quality of the product [CD and DVD Duplication] and throughout this project I have been extremely impressed with their commitment to on-time delivery.
Over the last year, Stretch the Skies has taken on an increasing volume of our new releases. What we can count on from their staff is this: guaranteed quality and exceptional customer service, an unbeatable combination I’m sure you’d agree. But when you take this and add to it competitive pricing, you have a hands-down winner. As a result, we are now shifting all our media production and distribution to Stretch the Skies.
It’s a pleasure to work with a vendor where every employee of the company takes pride in their product and is willing to go the extra mile to get it right. In fact, I don’t look at them as a “vendor”—they are truly our partner in servicing our franchisees and their clients with the highest quality product. We look forward to a bright and mutually beneficial future working with Ken and his team.

I want to say a big "THANK YOU" for all that you have done to help me sell my product. The ability to sell my music through STS has been tremedous in terms of getting my music out to the public. I was extremely excited to hear from you and your plans for my cd "Undeniable." - Eric Radford - E'Andre -
We love you guys....You really are amazing. This is a great opportunity for us, and we can't thank you enough.
Thanks

I just wanted to let you know that the Custom Management Plan was right on the money. It gave me the insight as well as refocused me on the little things that have to be done to be successful in this business. The fact that I was walked through the plan to make sure I totally understood all the aspects of what needed to be done was priceless. I will definitely be doing repeat business with your company. Thanks again, DL. - Dwayne Clark AKA DL - www.triplebeament.com - - Queens, New York
Wow! You guys have the BEST customer service department EVER!
Somewhat confused when I first attempted to navigate/enter all of the required information, I figured that I'd call the "help" line- even though I fully expected the USUAL "we'll get back to you" kind of response. Well, surprisingly- no, shockingly...I was provided ALL the help I needed AND MORE! Oren walked me through everything-- turned out to be EASY! Went from stressed to calm (and DONE) in just a few minutes! THANK YOU so much! - Gina, for Luigi Funicello -
"I cannot THANK YOU enough for the interest you've shown in my Album "Spider Soul". Everything looks GREAT!!! Later, I'll be asking you about the many features or options that I've noticed. Just want to say again, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!" - Darrel Andrews -
“I knew I had potential, but I didn't know where to start. After stumbling upon the Vision Music USA's website, I decided to send some of my work to their offices, figuring I had nothing to lose. I was pleased by their lightning-fast response and courteous professional manner. They told me about the customized plan they wanted to set up for me, and spent hours on the phone with me before I committed to anything, giving me detailed and thorough answers to absolutely all the questions I had. Because their prices were so astonishingly low, I decided to go ahead with the plan and before long they delivered on all of their promises. I received a solid plan detailing all the steps I'd need to take in fulfilling my goals, and I was given hours more on the phone with them to ask all the questions I could think of. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to take their music career to the next level (or in my case, the first level)!” - Justin - Techno, Trance, Trip Hop, Drum & Bass & Hip Hop DJ, New York
"In a world of people trying to screw over the little guy, Vision Music USA is nice change of pace. With some fine services and a good memory, they are always willing to help and seem to have most areas of music covered. - Michael Hirsch - Emo Artist, MA, USA www.michaelhirsch.net
"We got your demo evaluation. Thanks for all of the great feedback. What we have decided to do is move forward with our new songs. . .We will definitely be taking your recording suggestions and using them." - Midwest - Rock/Jam Band, WA, USA www.Midwestfans.com
"Vision's service was prompt and competent. I got some great CD design layout choices and received my CD shipment on time. I'd definitely use them again." - Caspr_NYC - Hip Hop DJ, NY, USA
"It was a pleasure working with the folks at Vision Music USA. They took the time to fully ascertain my goals in the music business, and offered many insights into the marketing of my music; image and promotional materials that I believe will help me immensely. I look forward to putting these new strategies to the test and to working with them again down the road." - Dave Osoff - Instrumental Jazz / Funk Artist, MA, USA www.DaveOsoff.com
"I just got a free demo evaluation from Vision Music USA. They pretty much nailed everything from our influences to what songs are good for radio. They had really good honest feedback for our project. This was a very positive experience!" - Joe of LP Outsiders - Hip Hop, Rap, Funk, R&B and Jazz Band, MO, USA www.LPOutsid
"Thanks for all your help with re-designing our website www.bwpinc.com. Our whole team is very pleased with the way it looks and I am happy that it didn't cost me a fortune. The best comment I received is "your beginning to look like a real company"...this is important to me, because that is exactly the point we were driving at. As the need arises, I will be calling you on some of the other services you offer and look forward to working with you again." - Sean Winslow - Big Water Productions, NJ, USA www.bwpinc.com
"Vision's service was excellent. I purchased the Bio Service, Press Kit Development and Logo Design services, and it really added flavour to what already existed. They listened to my music and used language that was a huge selling point. Even though I am based in the UK, they were almost always available, by phone, by email and even using MSN Messenger! I feel much more confident now when I send out my press releases and feel that the service was extremely good value for money. I would recommend this service for someone starting out or already established who wants a fresh perspective on their branding...I am looking forward to working with Vision Music USA in the very near future." - Glideascope - Trip Hop Artist, London, UK www.Glideascope.com - "Audio Ci
"WOW! How refreshing it is to deal with an organization that actually goes the extra mile!! I used the services for Press Kit Development, Internet Marketing Strategy & One Sheet Design/Printing & every step thru Vision’s staff was on it-- they even called & left messages as to the current status of the project! That just doesn't happen in this business! The One Sheets are top flight Pro & look fantastic. Now you guys even have Muzikman on board the best Music Reviewer on the net! I will definitely use your services in the future- Pleasure doing business with you -- Thanks again! - Mike Marino & His Restless Soul - Rock Songwriter, NJ, USA - www.restlesssoul.com
"With calculated precision, personal attention to detail and extraordinary insights into the music industry, I was overwhelmingly satisfied with my Custom Management Plan. It is with wholehearted enthusiasm that I express my full professional endorsement for all services rendered by Vision Music USA. This is definitely money well spent." - Matthew Zachary - Solo Piano Recording Artist, NY, USA www.MatthewZachary.com
"Vision Music USA has to be one of the most honest, professional, and extremely helpful companies in the music business. They have given our band insights that we probably never would have thought of on our own. With the help of these people, they really gave us a bigger boost in our confidence level. Thanks for everything guys!!!"

Oh my goodness!! THANK YOU. Please multiply that by a MILLION! I love the site. It is what I wanted and it's so beautiful. So far the response has been spectacular. I am beyond satisfied, beyond happy. This far exceeded my expectations. Thank you for the constant communication, the conference calls and finally the best, best, (did I say best?) website I could have hoped for. Your company is better than any book I have bought, any seminar I have attended. I know that I can trust your services without a doubt and in this business I am finding that to be rare. Now that I have used your company for my bio and website, I am thrilled to move into the next phase. Thank you. - Tanya Fermin - Jazz and R&B Aritst, CA, USA - www.TanyaFermin.com
“The Custom Management Plan helped me not only to set my goals but to set out in achieving them. The folks at Vision Music USA have been wonderfully courteous and exceedingly helpful in assisting me in intensely pursuing a career in music.” - D.J. Phillips - Solo Pop/Rock Artist Minneapolis, MN, USA
“Taking an original approach like I am into the music business I've found it extremely difficult finding someone who actually understands, or is willing to take the time to understand, what I'm attempting to do. Well, that is until I began working with Vision Music USA. They took not only the time, but also more importantly the effort to listen to my ideas and incorporate them with their own. The result? Not simply a Custom Management Plan, but rather a custom blue print for a successful career. - Vigilante - Hip Hop & Rap Artist, TX, USA - www.vigilantehome.com
This is not a gimmick... I have 115% trust in this company! - Jeannette Elgner - Silver Tongue Music - New Hampshire
Hi Jeff,
Thank you for spending the time with me on our phone conversation today. In this wacky business world of the music industry an artist needs to be careful in someone on the Internet proclaiming what they can do for you and your music if you just send in MONEY!
I have always made a point to follow an old rule-of-thumb, never pay someone to listen to your music and say "Its really not what we're looking for". And then keep my money AND my music.
After talking to you not only did I shelve my defenses in thinking this is another "music biz scam" but you have also inspired me with hope. In that looking up at the huge mountain to climb to be recognized as an artist in the music industry and actually making some money at it is a little smaller of a mountain to climb today. To feel success is within arm's reach with the help of your services as you team together with the artist is truly like a breath of fresh air after coming out of the corporate label gas chamber.
I really think that your services and ideas will put you in a position to change and shape the music recording industry such that it will be very easy for the average artist to bring their music to the world market place without the major labels. - Tim Lavin - Liquid Composer -
Hey Jeff,
I sent another venue settlement sheet. Let me tell ya thanx so much for all you guys have done for us. when you're in a band you hear so much bullshit, like you're going on tour, getting signed, etc, etc, You hear it from everyone from bands, fans, promoters, whoever, and its all just meaningless talk. Putting in the money toward you guys is the best investment we have made as a band you guys are nothing but honest and respectful. you have helped us big time and you guys are no joke. So keep up the great work and we look forward to working with you guys. That ad in Metal Edge made us real proud and we thank you for it.
Much love and respect,
Lance from Guernica
- Lance, Guernica, Band - Long Island, NY
These guys have performed flawlessly for all of the referrals that I sent them to date. - Jason Weaver, owner, Mixdown - Wisconsin
