TRIANGLE RECORDS DISTRO TAKEOVER! WCN has absorbed a ton of distro stock from the late great Triangle Records Distro out of Poland. Finally added nearly 200 new titles. Lots of known OOP gems, classics, and Eastern European curiosities across all genres of noise/experimental/industrial/power electro...

Getting a thoughtful physical release in your hands definitely makes a much bigger first impression to me than a link. Are you saying that a physical release is good in general or specifically for sending music to labels? Good in general. Complete something you're honestly proud of, make up 30-50 c...

And, avoid self-releasing. I know, it's tempting, it's very fun and it's also been the backbone of DIY culture for the last 40 years or whatever. But, if no one else wants to release your stuff, that COULD be for a reason. There's obviously a ton of other reasons why someone would put out their own...

It’s not making your recording sound better, that’s mixing, and is done by the artist. I agree with pretty much everything except this (re- mastering). It can make your recording sound both better and worse. Talking about SOUND, not SOUNDS here... It's generally hard to compare a vinyl master with ...

Oh, and while we're at it... Sometimes a label will be keen on releasing your stuff. It may even be a "cool" label. But they might also be used to making things the way they like and push things onto you regarding your release. To me it even went to the point of them either mastering my s...

The label typically pays for mastering, unless the artist has some sort of arrangement made with someone who masters. Mastering is the absolute final step. I honestly think there’s a big misconception that every noise release needs to be “mastered”. Mastering is actually the process of optimizing a ...

When it come to releasing/sharing your recordings, give yourself time. Don’t upload every track you make to bandcamp right away. When you have a recording you are truly happy with, release it yourself. Make 50 tapes/CDrs and send them in the mail to artists and labels you truly admire and respect. W...

Finally have my stereo up and running again. Been enjoying this trifecta of shimmering shredded sound all day:

HAHA! Let's get it!

I'm really not in a methodical place in my life at the moment, so my listening discipline is all over the board. Running a distro, it's a lot like Taylor has described: constant flow of new releases, so I spend most of my time trying to listen to new arrivals, often times only once. Not to mention f...

And so suddenly great new things are born! Looking forward to this.
