[microsound] Re: commentary on one-copy label



hello sylvain,

>Is music really lower than other arts?

well it isn't, it's just different. what i love about music is that i can hear a music work on my own, that everyone can own it, that it's a popular art.
painting and sculpture, as beautiful as they are, are elitist. most artworks are owned by private collectors and will never be seen by other than the rich owner and his friends. and i could not even fly around the world to visit museums and galleries, i cannot afford that.
so i am a little worried if the future of music is to be like painting or sculpture.

i do not have any problem (obviously) against the artists who are releasing one copy music works, and i can understand that they are getting  a payment which is not always paid with standard releases, but i do not see this as a solution to the supposed disappearence of vinyl/cd.

anyway i do not think that your label totally sucks: what i surely liked is that it tries to put back "value" into the music work, when we know that digital filesharing is spreading the idea that music should be free.

thank you,

david.
