hehe, uncanny. He was pretty good in that film, although as has been documented he based himself on a well known musical celebrity. More cloning going on there, then.

I didn't see a thing wrong with the Advanced site, I mean not for nothing Death but even Surgeon's got a few mugshots on his site as well.
I'd not necessarily put any of those things on a record label site, to be honest. The first two, probably, possibly, if they were relevant to the actual music (and it is a label site, right?)...although I'm also not a fan of people lauding themselves or their achievements, real or otherwise, in their own words - just looks like bragging. Objective statement is fine with me. Just my taste, really, and it depends on how it is presented. Invariably if I see people calling themselves pioneers in any context the first thing I'll think is that they're a totally arrogant cock (this point is not in reference to the specific individual in this topic, but a general observation of some websites I've seen and the behaviour I've seen from some "artists").

The third one, only if I really fancied myself and was a bit of an immodest tit. I see nothing wrong with showing people what you look like, but that site is draped in poncey images on almost every page and it's pretty distasteful. It's not a pop-star's site, ffs.

MARK EG - I fail to see what the problem we have is, you've pretty much repeated several of my points in your own words so it would appear you're disagreeing with yourself. It's just that I approach things from an ends perspective, not a means. The end result is what is important, not really how much effort one does or doesn't have to expend in order to achieve it. What's the point in working your arse off to be everyone's favourite generic hard techno DJ/producer? Fair play to him, as you say - there's a lot of competition out there.
