Hi dale,

I know what your saying dale , fully agree , to be frank i havent heard of
microdistribution - i was more refering to some of the larger ones doing
dance , trance , etc etc though i am niot involved in this business anymore
..

"microdistribution." This usually is done through smaller distribution/mail

or pay the

thats a very different thing to my mind and i fully support this approach ,
to be frank its not so much wanting the earth or money upfront as a token
gesture or some sense that this is a  partnership or sharing and supportive
experience .

it. By buying

Thats cool , alternative network of artists  supporting other artists is one
area i failed to kind of mention or consider fully as i havent had any
experience of it , thats the way. . when i said distribution i didnt mean
this kind , i'm all for what you do .


best wishes
