morgdobwcpt	Date: August 15, 2002 @ 6:18 AM warp - good: home of the classic IDM sound bad: home of the classic IDM sound def jux - good: listen to any song by Cannibal Ox, Aesop Rock, or El-P and you'll see what def jux gets right bad: none that i can think of rephlex- good: lots of artistic freedom given to acts. far more concerned with content than image bad: any label co-owned by Aphex Twin will inevitably appeal only to a very limited segment of listeners. also, willfully obscure.
ChillinBuzz	Date: August 15, 2002 @ 6:27 AM Warp is cool, especially the web site (tho' that clanking noise becomes a pain after a while!) As for rephlex, I worship Aphex Twin. It is limited appeal but it's much more interesting than most mainstream (the price we pay for our diversity K7 Records gets my thumbs up - creators of 3-Lux and X-Mix (for those who remember MTV's party & chillout zones from 10 years ago).
princess-angry	Date: August 15, 2002 @ 9:10 PM cool...
ebjcoat	Date: August 22, 2002 @ 6:03 PM epitaph is good.
GrooveTonic	Date: August 27, 2002 @ 6:03 PM Ninja Tune Records all the way hehe! Very progressive music in my opinion. I don't think they are owned by one of the big five either, but you can never be too sure! ehheh
smelv1n	Date: August 27, 2002 @ 7:35 PM NINJA TUNES!
PetulaClark	Date: August 31, 2002 @ 12:37 AM Matador, Emperor Norton, Compost
princess-angry	Date: August 31, 2002 @ 2:30 PM cool.... thanx 4 commentin!!!!! awesome. excellent. now is there any big lables that you like????? thanx.
Schilly	Date: September 5, 2002 @ 7:28 PM I like Aftermath....under interscope and I like Battle Axe as far as indies are concerned. Murder Inc though equals bad to me since half their content has the words " I-N-C " or " It's Murdah! " or Murdah Inc! " or some other juxtapostion of those words.
nintendomaster	Date: September 5, 2002 @ 8:01 PM Universal and Interscope is good one as well. Also, Cash Money is loaded with money and fame . Not to mention RCA is signing Kelly from American Idol...damn she's fine
wallyadimeck	Date: September 7, 2002 @ 8:55 PM What they do right, is expose some good bands, such as Nirvana, Pearl Jam etc. Sure some of us knew them before there Major debut's etc, but it opened a lot of peoples eyes and ears to them once they where picked up by majors. So that is a positive side to it." id="17775">What labels do wrong, is they exploit concepts and ideas, which have been shown by the "flagship" artist - and they try to further polish the idea, and exploit this for maximum profit. It generally in turn also shortens the life of a product.
