Nu dropper bandet Nine Inch Nails, som Radiohead(http://www.hifi-musik.dk/?page=viewtopic&t=2483&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0) også pladeselsskaberne. Bliver spændende at se hvordan NIN vil håndtere dette. Mon vi får custom LPer som ved Radiohead?  Eller 24bits eller højere downloads?

Bliver spændende at se hvor mange andre bands som går denne vej og hvad dette vil medfører for os forbugere.

"Hear that? It's the RIAA quaking in their diamond-coated boots as yet another A-list band gives labels the finger: Pretty hate machine Trent Reznor announced today that "as of right now Nine Inch Nails is a totally free agent, free of any recording contract with any label." Instead of futzing through the hapless middleman of an inept label, Trent's promising "a direct relationship with the audience as I see fit and appropriate," so we can expect more experiments in direct distribution and promotion, probably culminating in an album release not unlike Radiohead's In Rainbows.."

[Bulgroz]

Yes baby, 24bit 192khz, køb rettigheden direkte hos kunstneren for tid og evighed. Det er sgu noget der rykker. Så går pengene det rigtige sted hen.

Nå ja, custom pløjemarker til dem der har de lyster lyder da også rigtig lækkert

Men Trent er ikke helt færdige med pladeselskabet...

New Order's Stephen Morris and Gillian Gilbert, Switch,
Paul Epworth all confirmed

Looks like Trent Reznor hasn't quite rid
himself of Interscope just yet. The once-mysterious
Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D album will be released on the label in a number
of formats November 20.

In a post to Nine Inch Nails' website yesterday, Trent
laid out all the details for the remix album. In addition to previously
confirmed remixers the Faint, Sam Fogarino of Interpol, Fennesz, the Knife's
Olaf Dreijer, Ladytron, Saul Williams, and Bill Laswell, Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D
also contains previously rumored, now confirmed remixes from New Order's Stephen
Morris and Gillian Gilbert, Switch, Paul Epworth, and a ragtag crew of others,
including a fan.

Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D will be available as a digital
download, a CD/DVD-ROM combo, and a triple-disc LP. The digital download and
CD/DVD-ROM share the same tracklist, but the latter "also contains a DVD-ROM
(not a movie) that contains every track from Year
Zero in multitrack format for you to do with what you please." He
adds, graciously, "Mac or PC."

Both the vinyl and the CD come packed in a six-panel jacket designed to match
Year Zero, though a number of tracks are exclusive to each. But frankly,
Trent doesn't really care which version you buy, or if you buy it at
all.

Having trouble sorting through your options? Let Uncle Trent
explain:

"I can make this easy for you: if you just want to hear the tracks as cheaply
as possible, get it digitally. The highest fidelity will likely be [the] Amazon
[digital music store] (through legal means). If you want something that's
aesthetically cool and will enhance any collection, get the vinyl. Trust me, it
looks great. The extra tracks are fairly minor embellishments to the whole (and
surely someone will upload them instantly). If you want higher quality tracks
legally, a nice package AND a complete multitrack of the whole record, get the
physical CD / DVD ROM." You're the boss!

Trent's straight talk express kept on rollin':

"**insert comment from NINSUX: 'I thought he said all the multitracks were
going to be posted online, now he wants us to PAY for them??'

Relax,
friend. One second after this package goes to the manufacturing plant someone
will kindly upload those missing multitracks and everything will be OK. If they
don't soon enough for your liking, just yell loudly out the window and I'll do
it myself."

Awesome! We love it when
artists leak their own albums!

He continues: "As for the record
itself, I'm very pleased with the way it turned out. Remix records can be
disposable garbage (of which I myself have been guilty of to some extent) but
this collection feels good to me. I reached out to heroes, friends, and
strangers. I encouraged those I approached to do anything and insert themselves
as much as possible into the track. Some of the stuff that was done earlier led
me to choosing other people to balance things out. The Pirate Robot Midget mix
is a fan's work-- I thought it was great, it filled a need and I asked
permission to use it here.

"It's always interesting for me to hear my
work reinterpreted-- I hope it is for you as well."

Upon the release of
Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D, Trent and co. will launch remix.nin.com, designed as a hub for
submission and discussion of fan remixes.

Er det en generel trend at bands har faaet nok af pladeselskaberne?

Einstuerzende Neubauten's nye CD "Alles Wieder Offen" (der udkommer lige om lidt) er ogsaa lavet uafhaengigt. Det er noget de har villet goere i lang tid, financieret via en "supporter ordning" hvor man kan betale en slat penge og saa til gengaeld faar adgang til lyd- og video-optagelser og andre "goodies" fra bandets arbejde mens pladen bliver til.

[Raskolnikov]

Så er det første resultat klar.

Fra
http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/digital-downloads/
trent-reznor-and-saul-williams-show-the-music-industry-how-to-release-
an-album-online-318377.php

Journos and music fans from all corners fawned over Radiohead for their bold release strategy for In Rainbows. After breaking with the majors, Trent Reznor and his parter-in-crime Saul Williams are taking that strategy and stepping it up to the next level of awesome. Saul's new Trent-produced album The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of NiggyTardust is now available two ways: Free or $5. For zilch, you get the whole album in DRM-free 192kbps MP3 encoded with LAME 3.97 "and love," plus the digital booklet (take that, Radiohead). For $5, you get the digital booklet and a choice between 320kbps MP3 or FLAC lossless, meaning even audiophiles can feel good about purchasing a digital copy.

While he kind of dodged the question in the famed interview he revealed he was a former OiNK member, this feels like a pointer toward where the release of the next NIN album is heading. I'd still prefer a physical CD, personally, but this kind of digital release I can get behind—the price and the format are right. The rest of the industry would do well to pay close attention to how this turns out—or not, and simply follow suit.

Synes faktisk det er et meget fedt album! Fik det gratis og skal måske opgradere...andre der har hørt det? Eller hentet det?
