Planet Squared Entertainment Productions
About
Us
In January 2000 Planet Squared Inc. was founded by Richard Soumakian to spread more positive vibes around the planet. Upon graduating from the University of Arizona, Richard combined his love for music, creative marketing and business planning to produce two albums along with two national tours that are currently generating solid reviews, national charting, interviews, press coverage, television appearances, film soundtracks, and airplay on Alternative, AAA, Hot AC commercial and college radio stations in over 200 cities throughout the US, Canada and UK. Through dedication, hard-work and perseverance, the band QWIKSAND was recognized and awarded by the Independent Artist Registry, an independent talent scouting service that works with the top 100 record labels, A&R reps, producers, and many other music industry professionals to find performers ready for the next level. Today Planet Squared promotes national live concerts, new music and art made with Eco-friendly recycled materials.

What is Planet Squared?
For centuries industries have mass-produced conventional products based on consumer demand. In order to stay competitive, most industries have cut their up-front costs by exhausting natural resources, however the TOTAL COSTS are being pushed onto future generations in the form of toxins, pollutants and waste. Today our planet's vital ecosystems are becoming compromised as a growing number of plants and animals are struggling to survive due to global dimming and global warming. Planet Squared's goal is to provide innovative products that let you live in harmony with our environment. Every ton of recycled paper we use for example saves 53.2 million BTU's, reduces 587 Lbs. of air pollution, cuts the emission of sulfur dioxide in half, preserves 17 trees, 6,953 gallons of fresh water, 463 gallons of oil and 3 cubic yards of landfill space. Compared to conventional materials, we save over a 1/4 of the energy used in manufacturing our products and also add the fact that our packaging is recyclable, therefore mathematically, the results are squared. Hence the name: Planet Squared
You can now find products from Planet Squared featured across the US and in select foreign markets through Live Entertainment Events, Television, Film, Mainstream Commercial Radio, College Radio, Multimedia, Magazines, Newspapers, National and International Retailers, Top Internet Search Engines as well as Public and Private Sponsored Programs.
