V/A - Adult Swim


The people at Ghostly just might have lost their minds. They've decided to make their latest compilation Adult Swim available to download for free, yep absolutely no coin whatsoever. It includes tracks by Dabrye, Matthew Dear, Osborne, Kill Memory Crash and a few staples from the illustrious label. It's proof if ever that music is becoming more and more of just a marketing tool for producers so they can get more gigs. Most labels nowadays don't pay you upfront for your records but rather pay you out of the profits made from sales, if any. Gone are the days when a single selling ten to twenty thousand copies was good business but rather nowadays if you shift a thousand you've done well, so doing things like this to get more exposure for your artists can't be anything but a good thing.
