Ten solo CDs in the New Age genre followed, including Muse of the Round Sky on the Hearts of Space label. Muse won several awards and is played on more than 2,000 radio stations around the world in addition to syndicated shows such as Music from the Hearts of Space and John Diliberto's Echoes. Three thirty minute features with the latter are added to his credits along with his many other radio interviews.

Avgerinos always makes time for scoring and has worked on over 100 Film, Commercial, TV, and Cable projects for all of the major and minor networks with over 3,000 licenses in the last year alone. Paul's work on Peter Kater's Red Moon earned A 2004 Grammy Nomination.
