History
Martin Nethercutt, our President and Co-Founder was a musician by the age of 17. He went on to become the distinctive voice of many commercials, as well as movie soundtracks, produced by multiple Grammy winner Harold Faltermeyer. He is also the sole writer and producer of our in-house NetLoopz music library, a partner in iConz of Rock, and Co-Founder of iFanz Records. Martin is the recipient of a Hollywood Fame Award for preserving spoken word rock 'n roll for future generations. His current project is "Geist" with partner Marino DeSilva.
Our CEO Ruth McCartney grew up in a musical family with her Mother Angie, today our Secretary/Treasurer, who was the youngest person ever to qualify as a piano teacher from the Royal Queen Victoria College of Music in England at the age of 13. Ruth's adoptive Dad, Jim McCartney had his own jazz enterprise: "Jim Mac's Band" in Liverpool in the 1920's, and Ruth's step-brothers Mike and Paul were also in a couple of successful bands from Liverpool that you may have heard about. She was an artist in her own right, was signed in Europe to BMG / Jupiter Records, and as a solo performer, toured Russia, Siberia, Germany, Armenia, Turkmenistan, Estonia, the Czech Republic, Uzbekistan and even touched down in Afghanistan.
Thus, when the corporation was originally formed in Nashville, TN in 1995, the name McCartney Music Inc. was chosen. Then along came a little thing called the internet. Hence the name change and subsequent growth into a multimedia digital agency, think tank, iTunes® label and production company.
iConz Of Rock
iConz of Rock is a collection of never before heard interviews with the biggest musicians that have defined modern music.
The goal is to preserve Rock'n Roll history for future generations and working closely together with the Rock'n Roll Hall of Fame as well as content providers such as VH1's Save The Music Program, etc. The interviews are recorded in audio or video format and are available for download via the iTunes platform.
Currently, the iConz® brand is operating within the rock music genre. Once the catalog is complete (see list), plans call for expansion into additional genres. The iConz Group will realize revenue from (a) sales of units through both retail and digital downloads and also (b) from Corporate Sponsorship of individual or serialized projects.

Netloopz Music Library
Welcome to the Netloopz Music and Sound Effects Library.
Netloopz are short music and sound effect beds that were created and designed specifically for content producers, music supervisors, filmmakers, and creative production houses.
The idea behind Netloopz is to provide cost efficient musical alternatives to the traditional music libraries. If you are a Music Supervisor, Game Designer or Presentation Smith, then you know how much traditional Custom Library Music can cost.
The music pieces are ideally suited to provide background ambience for your Film, Flash or PowerPoint® Presentations. Currently the following albums are available:
| World | Fashion | Spirit | Cinema | Vol 1. | Vol. 2 | Vol 3. | Vol.4 | Vol. 5 |
