rekon we should get a logo sorted aswell. someone knock up a brief then we can open a new thread for folks to post logos to, then we can vote on it. could do the same for each ep's artwork n stuff, get the community voting on everything. will be good
definitly later down the line that is the way to go but in the meantime we'll just get the first 1 or 2 sorted as is. its a bit too quiet to be waiting around for voting.Quote:

I think this is a great idea and is sorely needed on the board to regenerate the brilliant production section we had a few years ago.
just spoke about this with bloodstar today. i have no idea of that stuff. maybe you could get in touch with bloodstar and 2 of you come up with some ideas?Quote:

is boa: output a good name???? i like it. but. can you make a name that represents the forum more?? and seperates it from boa digital a little bit more?
would LOVE also to have rhythmtech as A+R for this.
i'm not sure about the free thing. i'm kinda not really feeling that. everyone needs to be paid slightly, even if it's not alot...
i think we could get this up on beatport or whatever. i could even be able to get it up on the front page, linked to the store.. i would like also to make a deal with the artists we get on it, 50% split. I think this would be totally fair and really cool. i don't think you'd see many labels offering this!!
yeah very happy about this. would love to do it. ps thanks chris for offering your services!
OT: (pps chris thanks so much for your help recently, it's made a massive difference for me. i'll be in touch soon!!!)
If its going to be paid for it needs to be on a few services. I dont know what mark's thoughts are in terms of subbing the net label under the BOA digital he is planning, but we'd be prepared to do the dirty work in getting it onto itunes and a load of other mad retaillers across the world for nothing.
Just a thought... :)
yoyo.
I'm happy to do A&R, but happy to stand down if thats whats wanted.
No ego here. Excited to be involved, but no hard feelings either way.
get thinking everyone.Quote:

@ mark - do you want us to use the blackout audio name? i cant figure out how we would link the label to the forum without it?
not a problemQuote:

well, im perosnally not in a position right now to dedicate my time to looking after the business end BUT if chrisRDR wants to look after it then i dont see it as a problem. i just hope people dont expect to be making too much from it.Quote:

You guys are looking for a name that sums you all up and that lends itself to the forum also.
did you forget how to read danny? :lol:Quote:

I think what mark is saying is that his commercial BOA label project needs to be distinct from any work that goes on here. SO i guess it really is up to him to decide the name. Personally speaking i like BOA: Output.
Im happy to sort the business end. I like doing things like that.
I like sorting things with my business end.

Doesnt use Marks BOA tag, but still similar enough to the name..BOA OUTPUT 1
and still relates to BOA forum without being outright BOA, so suits mark too?
Total Blackout recordings?
why not go for something on a slight tangent:
sounds from the shelter
bunker beats
(great idea this label thing btw)
we need something in the name that represents boa somehow or other.Quote:

OK i've just put this to Baz, and I'll write it here to let you all comment.
How about (two off the top of my head right now):
Blackout Audio Networx ??? or
BOA :: Networx also....
Blackout Audio Network ??? or
BOA :: Network
For me, this is much more in keeping with the forum (cause we've always called it the Blackout Audio Network from day one). Kinda fits dont you think? Simply changing the k to an x will mean it's also something different to the forum, but the same, if you get me. I suppose this will be better for google searches too.
PS I like the way 'Networx' or 'Network' also does exactly what it says on the tin - it's work from the net.
:)
Lemme know guys and gals
cheers egg, i like "BOA: Networx"
anyone else?
Blackout Audio Networx
thats my vote.
but BOA Networx is alright too
actually, thinking about it "Blackout Audio Networx" would probably work better in our favour.
+1
Jay , Baz.........check mailbox ;)
B......check ya mail

Also, have you decided on a name yet?
Ah didn't see the other thread.
What about, 'Blackout Collective'?
its already been decided as "Blackout Audio Networx"
any news on this yet?
artwork, submissions??
have had about 7/8 submissions so far although no artwork yet! c'mon guys, this will only work if you make it work!
what about Chris Retox? hes a dab hand at artwork, or did u mention hes doing the management side of things?
need to talk things over with him, there seems to be a bit of confusion over the management end.
bloodstar is looking after all things art/web although ive not seen him online in a bit.
DVANT has already promised art aswell as tyrisia. just waiting on them to submit.
SUBMIT BYIATCHEZZzzzz.....
Yeah ,come on Artwork boys ;)
seems the initial buzz about the project is now subsiding?
Easy. I've not forgotten you. It's DVNT btw ;) I've been prepping for a gig this week and have zero time. I should have some time on Sunday and I'll get something together. I've got an idea what I'm going to do, just need the time.
