Dear Scott,
Thanks for your detailed reply to my confused angry mumblings. Amen to everything you wrote. Especially the reasoning that: “We provide the philosophical excuse for others to steal en mass.” Resonates with me completely. It always did felt odd to spread material without seeking permission first. I have also been contacted by a lot of artists or their relatives after I posted their music. In five years not one has complained.
Nevertheless this whole digital/downloading mess has seriously damaged my simple love for the music. Therefore I will follow your invitation to seek permission first. Out of fairness and even greater curiosity.
Let´s see where that road will take me…
Best wishes
Andreas
yea… this also means that this blog will be officially dead soon. I never meant this to be a permanent download archive anyway. Like I always said: I don´t give a fuck about MP3s. I´ve got the records. Right now I´m in Athens, Greece but I will be back in Berlin next week.
If anyone wants to download some of the music on this site, do it now. Next week it´s all gone.
