RA: Month to Month - Analysis of Vinyl and Techno...hmmmm

[Sunil]

I can't be worrying if people get "it" or not Sunil, I go with heart and do what I do, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't but either way I know I did it for the right reasons (for me) - it may not make any sense to everyone else but hey...

That's not what I said. Obviously you're no different to many other labels, in that you go with your heart. I'm not saying that you should be worried if people get it or not, but you give the impression as if you don't care if the label attracts new followers or not.

I know I can't force anything, so why worry about it?

That's easy to say many releases down the road, when you're a well-established label. I'm not saying you have to force anything by the way.
Ok, so going by your disinterest in what people will think, does that mean you don't promote anything either, or don't care what a magazine might write about a release etc?

Why is it easy to say? I've always felt like I do, there's no big switch gone on and I haven't changed anything I've done from the start.

I promote to a level I'm happy with, that hasn't changed at all. I can't change what people write about me or any of the release, great if they get it, hey-ho if they don't.

Because you have a better idea of where you stand now.
You had to approach selling records with a certain amount of uncertainty too I'm sure - just like any other label that has ever existed. I'm pretty sure you took a lot of interest in what people thought of the first releases.

great if they get it

Ok, good to have established that then :)

[Martin Dust]

I think you might be better off talking to yourself or perhaps poking a dead dog with a stick for nine hours - done.

Was that a joke?

Anyway, yeah. After meeting you briefly at Bloc and now watching you and your "I'm underground" God complex in action here, I think I've given you a fair chance.
At least you aren't someone I particularly admire, otherwise I'd be disappointed.

[Martin Dust]

No joke, it just seems to be going around and around Sunil so there's not much point, I not sure how much more I can labour the point really.

[massplanck]

Sunil maybe you should email Phil Hartnoll and ask him if he wants to resurrect Orbital with you and then come on here and tell us all that you dont care what people think about you or your records.

No problem with that, you've been slogging it out for a while before I came along. Shame you had to be ignorant about it though; it's a small community and all that.

[Martin Dust]

Long day Sunil, don't take it personally, it was meant in kind of a "oh **** it way"

[Sunil]

edit:

Right, **** this. I'm not on here to have rows.
Still though, BOA probably needs a few more to keep it going :)

[massplanck]

only joking Martin. ;)

[Martin Dust]

I know, I guess I should have stuck to one post, all the picking over shit gets on my wick.

I'm OK with the banter Sunil, I don't mind it at all.
