Re: (313) Amato's Demise
If the distrib fronts money for pressing/promo/whatever and it is not a p&d agreement...unless it is a pathetically bad p&d, which many are. And the label hasn't been doing well enough to pay back the fronted $$. I don't know how else. that's too bad about amato. i'd actually never heard of them though. (underground) record sales have been solid for about 2 years. the sky fell and the decline ended quite awhile ago. sales are generally lower than in the past for established labels, but it's not bad. an upturn would be great. i can almost see it happening. because cd's suck and mp3's suck. generic corporate objects and ethereal digital media must be leaving people a little hungry?! oh well, maybe not > how does a label go about owing a distributor?!?!?! > > tom >
(313) Kraftwerk: We Are the Robots
Kraftwerk: We Are the Robots Thursday 22 November 2007 11:30-12:00 (Radio 4 FM) Marc Riley traces the career of Kraftwerk, whose 1970s electronic music owed more to the experimental German classical compositions of Karlheinz Stockhausen than to any pop tradition. They were part of a new generation of young West Germans, living in the shadow of the Cold War, who identified with the need to recapture a German cultural identity distinct from that of Britain and America.

Re: (313) Amato's Demise
by the way - anyone answer this question: it will be difficult for any of the imprints affiliated with Amato to recover stock held at its warehouse. What happens to the leftover stock usually? Does is "disappear" (get sold by former employees)? If the label owes Amato money they won't see the stock until the money is paid, however if you don't owe money you can go and collect the stock at your own cost. If it's not collected it either gets sold or pulped. m
Re: (313) Amato's Demise
excellent analysis - I think the strength is in the collectives and direct business to business (and direct to customer) sales thanks for that by the way - anyone answer this question: >it will be difficult for any of the imprints affiliated with Amato to recover stock held at its warehouse. What happens to the leftover stock usually? Does is "disappear" (get sold by former employees)?

RE: (313) My Zoom H4 recorder as terrorist tool (was Re: (313) OT: Portable Recorder (same question as always))
On the other hand Kent, when I recently passed through Newark on my way back from Colombia - I naturally fully expected to be at worst detained for a few days, especially because I had this small 'sinister-looking' ('sinister looking' if you're a homeland security automaton, that is) notebook-sized box, in peculiar brushed gold colour, with a few dials and many levers. It's a BOSS BR-600, the latest in BOSS's portable recorder line. When the 'What is that?' question came, I was fully prepared to have to spark it up and give a little demo. But they just said 'have a nice day'. OnT: I don't think much of the recorder for lengthy recordings - the proprietory file format architecture creates problems in transferring the data easily. However for 'song-by-song' sessions - meaning shorter (smaller) individual files I've found it to be fine.

Even after turning it on, explaining it was an audio recorder, they still had to call in 2 levels of management to decide it was OK to fly with. I wonder if they changed the design on the H2 because too many people thought the H4 looked like a Tazer.
