MUSIC
This forum is similar to any other BCI forum in structure, principles, core values and purpose. The only difference is the area of focus and impact. This forum is a platform for those in the international community who believe they have a calling from God in the realm of Music. They come together to:

a) Understand God's call and purpose for the gifts and talents in music

b) Rehearse the teaching of kingdom principles and values within this particular sphere of life

c) Harness, develop and sharpen these gifts and talents

d) Be released into the secular world to make a difference for God

Their invasion into the world will be in a stealth and camouflage fashion, consistent with the principles of "being in the world but not of this world"- appearing worldly and yet absolutely godly, strategically embracing a worldly system only to bring about its demise and replacing it with an alternative kingdom lifestyle propagated through their music and lifestyle.

Music is a very powerful tool either for good or for evil. The world has used it to wreck, warp and defile our normal way of thinking which has consequently driven a whole generation to live a false manufactured life rather than the real one intended and designed by God. This is evident through the dramatic increase in consumerism, teenage pregnancy, teen suicide, drug problems, family break downs and more!! Music is destructive only because of the self-centered, money hungry people who are in control this industry.

For so long, the church institution has locked generations of world class musicians and performing artists in its religion and tradition, restricting them from demonstrating God and his glory on a world stage. Now, a new mandate from heaven has been placed upon the church to bring about the destruction of this currently worldly system (Babylon) by the strategic injection of the kingdom of God into every dimension of the Babylonian system, including music. Those who will impact the worldly system through this avenue will be better qualified and ten times better than those in the world. Their message will be positive and life-changing and their life will mirror the exact message they portray.

Vision:

"To raise musicians and performing artists of the highest quality that will invade the world with a fresh new sound from God that will render the current music industry and culture obsolete, and introduce the true life of God and the kingdom through their life and music"
       
     
S.O.R

S.O.R are a group of guys who just love to worship God. Through their music, they pronounce and decree ‘the will’ of God to the nations, not just in geographical location terms, but to a people, any people.  Their sound is one of declaration and extolment of our God. The name S.O.R derives from the book of Romans 6:18, which reads “For we have been set free from sin, and have become SLAVES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.

We have been together for about three years now. The passage we chose to walk hasn’t been ‘our cup of tea’, but nonetheless, we perfectly understand and agree that this is the process to perfection, of being the fullness of Christ here on earth. In other words, death to self is the currency of the Kingdom.

Each member was put through, and continuously is, in the refinery stage, allowing God to deal to the unnecessary things in our lives. We knew and comprehended the desire of our Father specifically for us, and that is: To be different. To live and breathe everything we sing, being that gold and silver conduit used only for noble purposes. That was important to us, not just as individuals but as a group. We don’t just want to be another Gospel group who can sing nice songs but have no substance. We just want to be real, knowing we are sons who represent their Father accurately.

Right now we are working on our first album titled “MY PRAYER”. Performing and ministering at conferences, youth rallies, churches, and community events has kept us extremely busy.

This has been such a remarkable experience and exposure for us. We have created such a positive profile within the body of Christ here in Sydney.

It’s just a privilege for us to have something powerful like this, and our lives are totally laid down for God and His Kingdom. Thank you to all who have supported us. S.O.R

Soul’d Out Records

Soul'd Out Records is a unique business which evolved out of the combined vision of Executive Directors, Rolando Pisia and Joanne Pratt.

Soul'd Out Records is a music company that has its roots firmly embedded in the community. The company manages, publishes, records and markets a range of artists. Soul'd Out Records produces positive, controversial, honest, relevant music that challenges the operations of every level of society: politically, socially and culturally. Soul'd Out Records works with artists who understand the influence they have through this platform, and are committed to being proper role models to today's generation.

The company is jointly owned by a community of like-minded individuals who share a common passion for the music industry and a desire to see that industry impacted and changed. This unique structure facilitates partnerships between artists, song-writers and producers and well as music business operators; greatly enhancing the potential of the Company to impact on a level beyond that of its competitors.

Soul’d Out Records is not genre specific and we are currently working with a number of artists, including: Mark Lowndes and The Sound, an indie rock-soul-funk band based in Brisbane; S.O.R, a gospel group from Sydney; and a number of other artists. We also have access to an incredible bunch of producers, who put together the Paradox mixtape, the first krump compilation to come out of Brisbane and get the seal of approval from the original KRUMP King himself Tight Eyes on his recent tour of Australia and New Zealand. Also available is a promotional DVD of S.O.R performing live at ICON 06.
