Maybe you and people like Dirty Bass want to continue telling people where 'we' are headed and how grim things are (I don't know?)...continue on if you like, I hope people are listening to you and making you feel right.
    So you cant see the correlation between low sales figures and the topic of this thread?

    Im sure it is. But how many sales does the average label in ANY genre make?

    ...continue on if you like
    .. ok, now that you've said i can, its made it better.

    I hope people are listening to you and making you feel right.
    **** me for analysing how things are going, i wasnt aware that i wasnt allowed to do that mate.

    FFS wind your neck in. If you have a personal beef with me then by all means go onto PMs, I guess the same goes for DB. Public slanging matches are pretty sordid.

    The figure mentioned was 2,000. This isn't low.

    It's not public slanging. You put out your opinion here as does DB, and what I'm saying is that contrary to what you might think, there is no gospel word around here... Some of the opinions here are just plain ignorant, speaking about harder edged techno or the styles more popular on BOA as if that's the whole techno scene or something. The usual 'we' , 'us' and "when will we ever learn?" type crap. It's ridiculous. A couple of people thinking they're leading the herd on BOA, when half of it is just horseshite.

    Im just trying to find my way through this rickety business, and how else to do that than to converse with people like yourself. For the record, id rather discuss what myself and others are trying to do than keep quiet.

    And whats this about WE or OUR? Thats not the same thing as what im talking about is it?

    A couple of people thinking they're leading the herd on BOA, when half of it is just horseshite.
    And who's that then?

    No worries man, it did get my back up for a bit, then i took account of myself and realised i didnt know why.

    For the record I dont believe this place is the be all and end all of techno forums, not by any means. But just like any forum it can be a bit insular.

    Techno is forever changing, my view is that its a natural occurance for it to move formats. The main problem is the quality product i suppose, as you mentioned with UR. And someone else mentioned with Hawtin I think???

    There are always going to be winners and losers in any business, music is particularly known for this, a make or break business where money lives on a knife edge.

    :)
