Can I Get a Universal Amen brothers and Sisters?
As long as you continue this conversation based on past models and lack and
frustration
all you will do is recreate the obvious pit falls and stereotypes of your
past experiences
Like Clear Channel and Bush have ruined Art for Eternity
Can I suggest reading "Follow the Music" The Elektra Story??
The Holtzman brothers came up with an amazing new idea
No one had sound effects Records in the early 60's
so without spending nearly a pretty penny and by releasing Sound Effects
Vol. 1 - 1000 with no residuals to pay to anyone
Elektra was able to fiancee all their artists without the pressures and
demand of going Gold
and that model for ... the time being was about nurturing artists
anything is possible
I'd much rather hear Ryan's ideas then recycling The "Let me tell you how
bad it is out there"
That conversation was old in the 80's and now nearly 25 years later
Isn't it a about time to line up with new models of possibilities??
Heck Not Lame is a great example Duet To it
