    I have heard this was on the cards a while ago, but didn`t want to say anything. Yep looks like it`s true.

    I think much of the shallowness crept in to combat dropping sales, someone made the point here before that the acqusition of Picotto was an attempt to tap into a new market- a market that they needed to survive. I'm not down with a lot of Prime stuff but there is a fair amount I do like. Whatever people's opinion is of Prime this bankrupcy thing (If it is true) is certainly not a healthy development.

    Are global sales declining that rapidly or is the advent of smaller specialised distributers affecting business alot more than we think...?


    This is really bad news for a stuggling industry, but didn't prime's accountants see it happening a long time ago...?

    OH MY GOD. Major news.

    I don't care what ppl say about Prime, they contributed to the techno industry. Perhaps badly in some ppl's eyes (from talking to others about the whole sweden/tribal thing), but they distributed some of my fave labels so for me, they deserve a certain amount of respect. I also feel very sorry for those whom they never paid. Hmm..

    I just feel the techno industry is in a mess. But hasn't it always been??

    here's the news i got,
    but it's not 100%, but it is from a good good source.

    prime owes/owed a lot of people money.
    prime folds.
    rumors now of it moving and reopening as "prime direct".

    !!! this is not 100%, this is only what i've heard. take it however you wish !!!
