Redruth Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 for instance, i can think of three straight away.. why would 'merck records' close shop at the height of their fame? why did shackleton start releasing on other record labels and close the door on 'skull disco', also at the height of it's popularity and finally, why oh why did funkstörung start releasing total dog shit and then eventually split? oh, and why in the wooorld would stefan betake close ~scape with the massive attentions that the dub's, dub techno etc are receiving?

thief Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 (edited) i actually like what shackleton did with skull disco. small little project in the form of a label that he and the contributors can look back on and be proud of. no compromises, just tunes they were 100% behind now... can you buy the stuff digi? thats the question :-) Edited August 4, 2011 by thief Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/67916-the-worst-artist-or-record-label-decisions-ever-made/#findComment-1630573 Share on other sites More sharing options...

o00o Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Warp never releasing a collaboration work of Autechre, Plaid, Clark, BoC and Aphex where they remix each other. I know they do not do it because aphex only remixes stuff to improve it but it would sound very interesting to say the least.
