hehe kind of an expensive way of getting the new album, but i get your drift. I’ve got a buddy who’s got one of those, so that’s gonna be the way i’ll get to enjoy it.
Word Elvin! Becides. It’s not exactly atomic science getting a vinyl record converted to CD-R or even MP3 if that’s your preference. Dammit…Let those “self indulgent mono minds” continue to endulge. It’s what’s led them to this point in the first place. No limits, no laws!
Well to sum up: The author is pissed at MP and Rune Gramofon for releasing the next album only on vinyl. He feels that MP and Rune are marginalizing an already marginalized audience by doing so, and are limiting their musical ventures to those with a record player, which he states is about 20 % of the listening market. The phraze EGO TRIP is tossed around abit too.
In shorter: Doing this is like pissing on their fans, and themselves, as he fears that their sales will plummit due to this vinyl only release.
But heck, it’s MP’s call right?! If nobody buys the record, then nobody suffers like they’ll do. Becides. It would be kind of weird for MP to take the “Prostitution” route when celebrating 20 years of being free to do what they want, without any corporate strings attached. And i think the odd paychonaut here and there will understand this, and find a way around this problem, instead of slapping the hand that has fed them excellent music for 20 years now.
Ok man! You do your thing. I won’t bother you anymore. But freakin’ write something. It’s a shame seeing your talent going into dissing MP, instead of reaching a higher goal.
I was serious earlier Mark. This stuff you’re writing here, although strange and hard to get a grasp on, is well written. I just don’t think it’s suitable for a OT thread meant to be an outlet for all members. No one seems to use it since you’re filling it up with your personal ups and downs. I mean…..how should one respond to all this?
That being said; I think you should consider writing something. You’re obviously full of thoughts concerning this and that. And you write well. But again; Consider making a blog or something. Cus i’ve got a feeling that your words go unread due to the sheer quantity you put on here.
Same here! After our big plans and initial noodling some time ago, my mind has been occupied with thoughts concerning a dear friend of mine, and his struggle against pancreatic cancer. So i haven’t done much. Frankly, i haven’t made any music at all these past few months. Not until this weekend, when i got a burst of creativity. And the good news concerning my friend (who is on the mend now) has enabled me to pick up my guitar again.
So long story short; I’m GAME!
I agree with JTR: Get a blog for all this. There just might be other ppl wanting to use this thread! Or go write a book or something.
The first song i heard was “Vortex Surfer” from Roadworks 1, and it completely blew me away. I don’t know if it was because of the girl i had sex with while hearing it, but since the girl is long gone, and i”m still here worshipping, i’m guesing it was the musical impact, and not that fine ass
Since then i’ve gotten my hands on pretty much everything. Don’t remember the order tho. I just know that TM was my first purchase
F***ing great man!!
It’s been awhile since we could feast or eyes and ears upon live videos of such good quality!
