I disagree wholeheartedly. Credit on a record lies not just with the person or people who wrote it but the people who cut it, the people who mastered it and promoted it and distributed it. Any record is a team effort. Look at Skankadelic for example. Leave Geezer to his own devices and he'd churn out more boring RAW loops but because of Mr Burns' approach to techno he has steered to Geezer into making tunes that a vast number of poeple still want to hear. Mr Burns deserves shit loads of credit for bringing the skankadelic label to the scene. IT's a ****in wicked label and it's him that did all the worrying and spent all the money getting it off the ground and his name has just as much right to be on those records as geezer himself.

I see no problem whatsoever in people who are passionate about their brand of techno getting it out there by any means neccessary. Especially when there is so little out there that meets my requirements. Why not get someone who can bring my ideas to life to do it? Collaborations are healthy for the scene and it's a great way for lesser known talent to get their foot on the ladder. It's only a problem when wankers like Lisa f*kin lashes who have no intent of writing there own tunes ever employ producers solely for their own selfish self agrandisement purposes. This release for me is nothing to do with boosting my ego or my DJ persona to any great extent. just my want/need to put some good music out there and also promote the producers I think deserve more credit than they get regardless of how well established they are.
