- Here’s something I wrote in 2007, if anyone would like to take the title of this blog post and write their own version then please do, the more thoughts and opinions the better. I don’t know it all, I am only familiar with my small area of activity within the so called “Music Industry.”
- I sincerely hope this story isn’t true: because if it is, it shows the degree of contempt that Council Leader Mike Whitby has for the people of Birmingham.
- If one were to capture the release policy of the Klangbad-label in a nutshell, one could say: no stereotypes. It seems that there is no such thing as the typical Klangbad-sound. Although it would not be hard to create a 'sound of the family' against the backdrop of the Krautrock icons that faust are. And in the sense of a 'corporate identity' do exactly the same thing with each new release. People in marketing think that way. Creative people don't.
