Re: Giving away all of my music for free.

There is a middle ground here it's not 100% black and white. You have the ability now to start a label with digital and vinyl releases at the same time. If you're not going to charge anything 100% digital is the way to go because there's no manufacturing cost so you don't lose money. There's a perce...

Re: Giving away all of my music for free.

By giving your music away you've basically given up all hopes at making money on any of the tracks you've made freely available by any label of note in the electronic music industry. Torque : Why should someone want to sell a track on a label when this tracks was intended to be free of charge for e...

Re: moogerfooger cluster flux

There is no phaser on planet earth that is worth $300 much less what moog would want for one. The analog craze is officially out of the realm of reason. You can pick up a used multi-effects unit from a resale shop from the 80's that sounds just as good and is under $60. The more money you spend on g...

The truth about Behringer is that everybody loves to hate on them cause they don't cost much. The real truth is that allot of their gear has actual top notch circuitry inside of it and a super ultra clean signal path but absolute sh!t for knobs and sliders.
