Dee:
that sounds nice chris.
buggesroom:
amazing gypsie stuff
Dee:

Chris:
Karen Dalton was a singer. She put out only 2 records, only one of which has been re-released on CD ("It's so hard to tell who's going to love you the best". Her voice was amazing, Billie-like.
Frode Roed:
Got to go (kindergarden) great fun - see ya tomrrow!
The One & Only Billy Shears:
Music from the Balkans and Eastern Europe in general is great
Dee:

buggesroom:
the london scene is where everyone wants to break thsough..
Chris:
There is a big free improv scene in the UK
buggesroom:

Dee:

The One & Only Billy Shears:
London is cool, but can be a bit distracting from the rest of the UK
Jonaso:
Stina is great!
buggesroom:
nah.. gave up london

The One & Only Billy Shears:
Edinburgh is better

buggesroom:
warp-ninja..
Dee:
yeah..I like what cold cut are trying to do..
Chris:

The One & Only Billy Shears:
The best of Warp comes from Cornwall and Scotland!
buggesroom:

The One & Only Billy Shears:
BoC & Aphex & Luke Vibert
buggesroom:

The One & Only Billy Shears:
Only Tom Jenkinson is an exception!
buggesroom:
two lone swordsmen..
The One & Only Billy Shears:

buggesroom:

buggesroom:

Jonaso:
Och du?
buggesroom:
not nececerally same style. but just as uncomprimising
The One & Only Billy Shears:
They are very strong - but they had some strong affiliations with creatives outside of music like Chris Cunningham, - that helped!
Chris:
DOes Universal hassle you at all?
The One & Only Billy Shears:
Also Chris Morris
buggesroom:
koslig. fint her og, deilig vær!
Jonaso:

buggesroom:

Jonaso:
last year
Torun:
hm..sorry:-) alt vel?
Dee:
we seem to be not as open minded as we was a few years back..
The One & Only Billy Shears:
That'll change, Dee - Ian Ballamy and those guys will keep it sweet
buggesroom:
really dee? its just more difficult now i think..
Jonaso:
supert, och du? Bra platta du gjort igen
buggesroom:
so many artists and Cds everywhere..
buggesroom:
thousands coming out every week
buggesroom:
hard to find a space
buggesroom:
and to get attention
Dee:
yes I worked with alot of american music dj's etc,and as a child we had feelings about underground music that are not the same now the major companys have us playing there fiddle
Dee:
lol
The One & Only Billy Shears:
Quality will win
Torun:
takk Jonas, så hyggelig. Alt er bra her.
buggesroom:
i dont agree dee. majors are going down..
Dee:
yes I am hearing it that more and more..
buggesroom:
more room for all kinds of alternativ music
Chris:
What bugs me is that what is seen on TV, heard on radio is so uniform and often not good, but sells by the bucket.
The One & Only Billy Shears:
EG: Arctic Monkeys
Dee:
i think you are right bugge..but it does need more people like yourself I think..
buggesroom:
but.. rock is back u know:)) electronik music is struggeling at d moment
Torun:
The One & Only; That is what we'll believe in!!
The One & Only Billy Shears:
They came out of nowhere
The One & Only Billy Shears:
Torun: Quality!! Yes!
buggesroom:
yeah rcommercial radio is shit!!!!!
Dee:
lol...
buggesroom:
hate it
The One & Only Billy Shears:
It's aimed at 6 year olds
Jonaso:
yup
buggesroom:
yes
Chris:
Just came to my mind, a swedish singer: Rebecka Törnqvist.
The One & Only Billy Shears:
6 year olds with bad parents!
Jonaso:
lol
Dee:
yes LTJ bukem did something very much like you have for drum and bass and I think he showed alot of the undergournd guys here the way forward..
Torun:
Dear all, have to go make some dinner for my little family:-)Bye bye!!
Dee:
label wise
Dee:
that is
The One & Only Billy Shears:
Enjoy your dinner! Bye!
Jonaso:
bye
Dee:
bye torun.
buggesroom:
but i believe thats why music is going down now.. because of all this crap stuff on radio
Chris:
She did several albums in english, but her best, from far, is the one she did inswedish. Was my bedside CD for months and months!
buggesroom:
hade torun!! koslig!!
buggesroom:
rebekka was very good, havent heard from here in a while..
Chris:
hej då Torun
Dee:
do you think majors will plugh money into the internet to gain more audience?
Jonaso:
agree chris, but lately she haven't been so good
buggesroom:
they will have to!
Chris:
I agree Jonaso, her latest was not that good.
Jonaso:
nope
buggesroom:
majors own so much great music
Chris:
Are you serious Bugge about Majors biting the dust? How do you know that?
Dee:
when you started your label you was in a postion to release with mainly anyone you might have wanted to,why did you start the label ?
buggesroom:
nut they have missed out trying to seel all this crap music too long..
Dee:
i really agree with that bugge
The One & Only Billy Shears:
Majors in any industry believe they can make people like what they tell them to like: People are actually smarter than that!
Dee:
have seen loads of friends sign and not get release that had smoking music
buggesroom:
well.its a fact that absoulutely nonone is selling CDs anymore..
The One & Only Billy Shears:
If a corporation becomes too big, it forgets to offer real variety (which requires time and money)
buggesroom:
ye. a total under estimation of audience..
The One & Only Billy Shears:
It also thinks it makes the rules of sale
The One & Only Billy Shears:
And the result is sudden and strange collapse - just ask the Roman Empire!
Chris:
But guys like Eminem, 50cents, Madonna, Rolling Stones, U2,...they do sell stuff, and the same stuff for many years now.
buggesroom:
independent music is growing while commercial stuff is goung down. its a fact..
Dee:
i rememer being in strong room and this girls where there,I was making a coffee,and someone said they would be really big as they had 3 million on promtion..they became the spice girls
Dee:
lol
Jonaso:
I think that in the end this is for the better for us "living underground"
buggesroom:
yes chris but noone new.. how long can they force rolling dtone to go on?
buggesroom:
agree jona
Torun logged out (timeout)
buggesroom:
hehe dee. horrible right
Dee:
lol..yeah my first real lesson in music that day
Dee:
lol
buggesroom:
but i dont think there will be another spice girls in a while..
The One & Only Billy Shears:
The underground - always has been the best place to be: a cult audience is a loyal audience that knows what it likes!
Chris:
I hope not! What excrement!
Dee:
yes I think people are smart now eh
The One & Only Billy Shears:
Uhmm pussycat Dolls, Bugge - already happening
Dee:
they see it more for what it is..
buggesroom:
no budget for 3 million in promotian anymore
Dee:
yeah...what do you think will happen for jazz..
buggesroom:
pussycat? another group?
The One & Only Billy Shears:
Yep
The One & Only Billy Shears:
They are a bunch of ex-pole dancers or something
buggesroom:
jazz will go on because artists and audience are dedicated1
Jonaso:
meybe we should start the spice dudes and perform naked wrapped in plastic bug ....;)
Dee:

The One & Only Billy Shears:
With a bugle
buggesroom:
hehe jonas.
Jonaso:

Chris:
