From my own experience I've found there are a few groups of people that buy this music we're into: 1. DJ's - who generally don't give a shit who made the record or what label its on. They just grab every new release and bring it to the tables and buy what they think will move the crowd. 2. Ravers/Clubers - who don't know ANYTHING about artists, labels, or sometimes even types of music. They generally buy only mix-tapes or keoki cds. 3. IDMers - who know every label, every artist, every music machine, and are quite content to spend most of their waking lives tracking down obscure records and every last single note by their favorite artists. /""'' /"'RESH Live and Direct from the G-Spot Orange County, California, USA
