I'd like to see a record label with more attractive artists. All the "idm artists" i've seen lately, barring the lookers on Warp, have been pretty ugly-looking. If you can get some hotties from both sexes, I'd buy your complete catalog. I know greg davis started autumn records through self-motivation. He's on the list, too. Don't know about the quality of his artists, though, since I haven't seen any pictures. cheers, /derek At 12:11 AM 3/13/2001 -0500, you wrote:
