Mumbai: Universal Music Group and Dada Entertainment (www.dada.net) have completed an agreement that will now allow Dada.net users access to music from Universal Music Group’s catalogue
Dada Entertainment currently offers SONY BMG’s music catalogue and will add content from other major and indie record labels in the near future.
To celebrate the partnership, Dada Entertainment will offer an exclusive MP3 track from Universal artists Xtreme. Beginning October 21, music fans can download the exclusive MP3 cut, "Es Tu Corazon," exclusively on Dada.net. The tropical/bachata band will release their new album Chapter Dos on November 25.
Fans will also have a chance to win an autographed guitar from multiplatinum artist Toby Keith.
