"pure indie"
lol
:D
you cant get much more indie than
cut and paste baltimor beats can ya surley? indie as in the old sence of th word do it ya self indipendatly rather than new meaning of the word any one with a guitar.
So that's two artists and a producer choice
IT'S BEING OVERRUN!!!!11
yeah
they should just stick to licensing all them american bands like they used to. they just aint what they used to be now, how dare they diversify and put out a variety of music!
fucking disgusting
I'd SO love
to contribute something to this conversation, but I can't.
they've just signed
Dirty Projectors right? Thats pretty Indie of them.
Yeah but that BBC thing
showed us that isn't 'PROPER' Indie. True indie is stuff like Razorlight, Pigeon Detectives and The Kooks. Will people on this forum never learn?
;-)
HI!!
I'M EMMI!! AND i'm AN indie!!111
Omigods!
Do you listenz to vinyl cuz it's quirky 2?!?!
BBC eh?
i missed something clearly.
losing my edge.
not entirely related
but a worked there for a couple of months so long back and they were all really nice people
they seem to balance bands that will make some money with passion projects really well
even their big sellers are quality act
domino is the sort of label more should aspire to be like.
^ this
it is my fave. Tied with Bella Union.
logo makeover too
I noticed it on These New Puritans
Eh?
Aren't Artic Monkeys and Franz Fedinand realy, really big?
Even though Franz an Arctics are big
i guess it allows them the creative freedom to persevere with smaller less commercial acts. Domino I like. Franz i like, Arctics not.
Check out
the All The Rage compilation.
Slow Down Ronnie by Von Südenfed is ridiculously good.
I ordered some vinyl off domino a while ago
it came in a package full of badges, postcards etc. I like Domino.
i used to help
fill those little packets lol
you can thank a guy called dan that runs the domino online shop for that
i got loads of badges, stickers and promos when i lest
twas brillig
Domino is a great record label
As somebody said even their bigger acts are amongst the better. And they have loads of different ace bands:
Smog)
Adem
Animal Collective
Archie Bronson Outfit
Arctic Monkeys
Benjy Ferree
Bonde Do Role
Bonnie 'Prince' Billy
Clearlake
Clinic
Correcto
The Count and Sinden
Death Ramps
Eugene McGuinness
Four Tet
Franz Ferdinand
Fridge
Hood
Junior Boys
Kieran Hebden & Steve Reid
The Kills
The Last Shadow Puppets
Lightspeed Champion
Stephen Malkmus and The Jicks
Max Tundra
Cass McCombs
Juana Molina
Jim O'Rourke
The Pastels
Pram
Preston School Of Industry
Psapp
The Pyramids
Quasi
Robert Wyatt
Sons and Daughters
Steve Reid Ensemble
These New Puritans
To Rococo Rot
u.n.p.o.c.
Von Sudenfed
Wild Beasts
Woodbine
Yo Majesty
James Yorkston and The Athletes
Plus they've released great reissues/compilations of Orange Juice, Josef K, The Triffids, Pavement, Magnetic Fields, Sebadoh, Neutral Milk Hotel and Young Marble Giants.
The only thing I don't like is the few crap bands they release cos they feature members of other Domino bands, like Correcto.
Thank you!
It was the postcard inside my Flying Saucer Attack LP that made me aware of Neutral Milk Hotel.
Thank you!
And I got a fourtet badge as well and stuff. It was like Christmas in a box.
