Archipelago Entertainment

On March 14, 2014 Ross and Brian Shenefelt co-founded Archipelago Ent in Atlanta, GA. Archipelago is a music based entertainment company that marries the world of music, technology and adventure . The management division is home to Adara and The Spacies.

Archipelago's adventure division strives to capture the greatness within people by fusing music creation and adventure. On October 5, 2015 Archipelago and Rind-Raja Picture Company released "Infinity" by The Spacies. The music video documented Ross and Dave Cook recording the song in the Parcell Mountain Range of British Columbia, Canada. The video shows Ross and Dave summiting the highest Via Ferrata in North America, to record a section of the song.

Archipelago's education division promotes ‘outside the box’ thinking for music producers, artists, and entrepreneurs. The adventure philosophy of the company is a notable topic during Archipelago's international education tours. Archipelago has held seminars and lectures at music schools around the world including, Full Sail University, Ferris State University, Belmont University, Seoul Music High School, The Record Factory in Seoul, South Korea, and companies Apple Inc, BMI, and SESAC.
