ObIDM: When the time comes for IDM poll nominees, can we specifically *NOT*
nominate certain things? I only ask because I want to record as many
negative votes as possible for Warp in the Best Record Label category...
they have no business being there this year (even though I *KNOW* they'll be
one of the nominees) because of all the useless pigshit they put out (see:
Squarepusher, Ae's EP7, Slum, Warp 10+1 and 10+2, etc...) >>
Agreed. Not only does Warp have no quality control,
but with their connections they should be putting out re-releases
and new releases from virtually every decent artist. If I
was lucky enough to run a record label for a living I'd
be busting ass for some serious quality control. Oh well.
On the topic of who should be the label of the year...
Seems the top two are Chain Reaction and Tresor.
Small independent labels I like SND and City Centre
Offices (I wasn't wild about 3 and 5, but 1 and 2 were
excellent and 4 is now an SND 7"! Wow!)
