You know Radio Phoenix is a big advocate of indie music. That is - music that's independently funded, recorded, distributed, marketed, etc. outside of the big, commercial machine. Not that there isn't amazing stuff coming from the big labels, but there's just so much creativity and originality coming from those DIY bands that find support in the smaller independent labels out in the world. And competition? You may not know it, there's camaraderie like you wouldn't have guessed! Check out what one record label is doing:
A GREAT RECORD LABEL FOR EVERY LETTER
"Today at Asthmatic Kitty we are launching a new project we're calling "Labels by Alphabet"... Asthmatic Kitty is going to take the next few months to celebrate labels we feel have integrity and good taste... We want to acknowledge and honor folks who are doing things their own way and releasing music that is important for the world to hear... Supporting and promoting independent music in general is good not only for these other businesses but our own."
