Subject:: Digital (re)-issue of my EP from 2001

I tried to start a label beginning about 15 years ago. I probably would have kept releasing vinyl, but 9/11 happened which seemed to suck the life out of the dance vinyl world, I lost my job and didn't have $1500 to press records, and after that, well, the whole world changed. But weirdly, I've been selling this record again in Europe through Discogs, so hey maybe it's time has finally arrived. I miraculously still had the digital masters on a backup disk, mastered them digitally, and uploaded them to BandCamp. As far as I can detect, no one ever digitized and uploaded them before; whether that means I slipped it into the marketplace just before digital music really caught on, or maybe DJs thought it qualified as a secret weapon to hoard, I dunno. https://chaircrusher.bandcamp.com/album/future-farmers-ep
