Agreed Martin. Alex, I agree with you that its pretty annoying to have this. However I do think that it's reflective of a fairly rare attitude within the sphere of the music which we like. The person who made this post looks to me to be more self-appointed rather than someone who has the backing and encouragement of anyone within the music who we'd respect. I really wouldn't worry about it at all. It sounds like some lone nutter! :-) Also, I think that given some straight info on the Buzz 'represses', fewer people than buy them at the moment, would buy them. I mean, so far, they're of low quality anyway. Record shop/label owners who in all other respects seem to support and safeguard 'our music' should perhaps think a little more deeply about the whole Buzz/bootleg thing, because it does raise some contradictions (such as those very shops which support the scene, contributing to hurting it!) although I stress, the whole issue is difficult and as for Buzz, it isn't entirely clear that the original artists/labels aren't deriving some indirect benefit. We just don't know. k >-----Original Message----- >From: Martin Dust [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Friday, October 01, 2004 10:13 AM >To: 313 List >Subject: Re: (313) EU Boycott and an End To European Insourcing Of >Techno Music > > >People, > >The last thing we need right now is a THEM and US war, not only is it >juvenile, it's clear the work of someone who doesn't understand the >scene or the people.
