I don't know Dirk or his history with Groove Distribution, but most of his
posts to this site are in response to questions or others' posts, and he's
been very helpful and knowledgeable in many cases. I realize that it's a
fine line, but working at a record store or as a distributor doesn't mean
that when Dirk or anyone in his shoes talks about the music industry or
about releases in his own store that he's spamming the net. And I think ,as
one who has closer ties to labels and distributors, Dirk's perspective on
the Napster/mp3 issue is of interest. Even if you disagree with him, he's
brought up some valid points.
So yes, I think going after Dirk on this list is in bad taste... let's keep
it positive.
On other things, I was surprised at how different DJ Food - Kaleidoscope
was from previous albums/remix CDs... it's very cinematic and intense with
far fewer beats than expected. I like it!
