Damaged Trax 03 ??

[acidpisar]

Hello Baz.

It's been couple months now since i remember you wrote about DT3.
Any fresh news when this one will be out ?

Let us know :)

[rhythmtech]

at the moment its looking like damaged trax will be going 100% digital unfortunatly.

the money just isnt there to do vinyl. but i am looking into other options and will be letting people know as soon as ive decided whats the best course of action.

either way there will be damaged trax 3 very soon, i just cant guarantee it will be vinyl.



PS. damaged acid 4 will be available for download from the acid section later tonight

sounds ominous, what happened there then? if someones done a wrong un in the scene its always better to let someone know so people can avoid working with them, this situation has cropped up a few times over the years on this board with various peeps

sorry to hear that by the way, never nice mate

I liked your label and thought it is just the beginning.

I dont know what you guys pay out there for all of the pressing and such, but here even with colored vinyl, it usually breaks down to about $2.50 US per record...Which is about 1 pound 25 pints for you guys right?

That`s outrageous, no wonder vinyl died in the states much quicker.

before you read this, this post isn't aimed at barry's label, its just a general comment on the vinyl scene which al is referring to. (just in case there's any misunderstandings) I don't know what the situation was with your distro, all though i'd be interested to see what you mean about costs. As as far as i know your distributor should be making money not costing money

It is a bit sketchy with vinyl at the moment, but you've just got to make sure it's a quality release. Also i think it helps to aim for more than one sub-genre so as not to narrow your potential target market too much.

Hopefully this toughness of sales will start to bring a bit of quality back into the vinyl market, which has been over-saturated with mediocre music as of late.

Labels must either realise they can't throw average records out or go bust.

The problem with the digital market is that due to the minimal running costs and low risk it's very over-saturated. There are some absolutely briliant digital only tracks & labels but it just also seems that for every one of those labels there's 10 sub-standard ones... but then i suppose it's always been like that with vinyl as well
Also i'm not looking @ taste here i'm talking about production quality.

I really hope that the market doesn't become so tough that it becomes digital only.
