I'm probably not allowed to do that
so I'll just ask for a bit of calm on the Internet (should be easy enough!), and add this:
Change is here. It could be for good, or it could wind up in a big firey fireball of, um, fire. I'm guessing that the decision to do all this was a business one, and there's nothing wrong with that. Because this is all a business, and if businesses don't do things to grow, then they shrink. Yet this isn't selling out. Perhaps if the first fruit of this new collaboration between two small, friendly, boutique labels was 10,000 reissues of the Dirty Dancing OST sold exclusively to new Sky customers, then maybe. But it's not. It's a thing that the label head put out because it'd be of interest to both us lot and himself to do it.
I'm supposed to be doing a writeup on The Raid tonight (for "supposed to be", read "might do it on Thursday"), and it will be with a teeny tinge of sadness that there's no more subs and I've now got to queue up with the rest of the web, but that's how it goes, and I hope that this little empire spreads beyond Margate and Texas to whatever's next because I really like the stuff that gets put out there and the coolness that gets put into each one. And I hope it expands quickly and profitably enough so that Spencer can hire someone to do subs again
