Please don't take this topic the wrong way, not everyone that supports
someone is going to get pre-released material, but those who do need to
inform people, why because not everyone hangs out the clubs not everyone
gets to listen to the big or descent underground people play. I for one am
not into the club scene, I have not been to an event in 4 years. I got tired
of the environment, so I would rather listen to the dope beats in my home,
in my car or at work. There used to be a pretty heavy pre-release update on
313 and many other lists, but for sometime now all of that has disappeared.
I happen to come across certain material here and there but I do not get
everything, and whatever I do get I forward it to people who push the
records. I collect CD's not vinyl, but whatever vinyl I do get I forward to
the local DJ's that are pushing the sound. But before anything I make sure
that people are made aware of these releases by every means possible. One
day in talking to Larry Heard, I asked him about something pertaining to the
Chicago House scene and he said that in the beginning people would go to the
clubs and check out the new records being played and then people would run
to their local record shop and buy the material, this is how he got into
spinning. Anyway the important point that he made was that in the very
beginning DJ's were very enthusiastic about letting people know what they
were playing. After a while DJ's got greedy, and guess what happened, they
started covering the labels of the records because they did not want other
DJ's to steal their sound, mind you that these are big names we are talking
about here. So you know what happened next, take a guess, this behavior had
a major impact on the record business, and the local record shops because
people got greedy and everyone got screwed, so much for educating the
masses, huh. So the moral of the story his stop hiding your white labels and
promos and insight on new material, if you really believe in this music,
then do everything in your power to spread the vibes. That is all I was
trying to point out. Not who is getting what material, cause that is not
what it's about. and another point be careful of the media if you don't know
who owns what and what underlies certain records being pushed so much on a
commercial and supposed underground (Hidden Commercial Companies. There is
allot of money at play here, as Mike Banks put it, MUSIC FOR THOSE WHO
KNOW.................Think About it, investigate and see for yourself, (Not
you in particular, this message is for everyone, especially the New Jacks)

I've supported them for a while now, but never get the chance to receive pre
release material from them, and I have HARD times to find their releases
other here.

How come certain trends on 313 are so easy to follow while others are just
ignored, why I ask this is because I know that there are more people on
this
list that get packages from Submerge or stumbled on certain pre-released
material but it is hardly ever discussed. I think one person shared their
views on the new V-Max and zero shared anything on the new KMS. What's up,
I
think it is our duty and responsibility to discuss this material!!! Why do
you think we get advanced copies?
So that we can spread the word and prepare and let people know that, hey
this stuff is gonna be out soon and you know what it is pretty dope, and
you
know what else you should go out and pick yourself up a copy or hound down
your local record shop cause we need to support the UNDERGROUND, what's up
folks? Is it me or is there something wrong here?
