...the endeavors of other Xltronic community members? Like for instance, say if someone in this community put out a record - do you buy it, say you'll buy it, or just avoid supporting it altogether? If they start some new site for (insert function here) do you visit it? Yes or no? I personally try to, but being broke as I am, I can't do it as much as I would like. |

same here. when that label of yours was going under i'd really wanted to buy some of your cd's but i just didn't have the dough. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's totally cool, man, at least your heart was in the right place. that's why i love this place - it's a cozy little community. Sure, we have our problems now and then - and usually they get kicked the fuck out for a while or forever. :D |
||||||||

i'd buy it if i'd like it...definitely. was this the question? :) |

Actually I haven't bought any of the other boardmembers music. I wanted to buy some of bix's (which I heard - but it was never confirmed - was a previous member of the board) music, but I was unable to get into contact with him. I would buy from a boardmember, yes. But I haven't done it yet. I'm also not loaded with ¤'s, as I'm a student. But it's always nice buying good music, so I do that as ofthen as I can. |

yes - do you support their endeavors? (musical) so that's.... YES - 3 NO - 0 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
YES - 4 NO - 0 |

This potentially is the ideal set up, where you have people with interests in, say, a certain area and attitude in music, and where a lot of those people create their own as well, ... so if everyone supported each other then you'd be approaching some form of music based Utopia, which would be nice. Sorry you wanted a Yes or No answer. Yes. |
||||||||

It all depends on what I am supporting, etc... If it's a new website or a piece of art or something, I'll check it out (as it's not much work to click a link), and I always try to listen to peoples tracks and give feedback, but as far as buying members' music, I would have to really like it, and of course have the dough. The only 2 people's music I've liked enough to buy from XLT are Fat Kaimo's and Ochre's... no offense to any of you other jammin fat cats :] |

all we need now is a food replicator and we're all set! |
||||||||
|
|

|

oh and YES if i had the dough, i would definitly buy music from zoggomatic and oddioblender |

I haven't bought many members music but I download loads of tracks by the artists here and will be doing something that may help a few of them soon hopefully. I paid for that WATMM CD but I don't seem to have that yet and I've moved house since. I check back on quite a few zebox accounts and such. I got a CD from Occasional Records and the dude behind that posts here occasionally, he hasn't had anything new out tho. Oddio, I had no idea about your label. Is there a topic where I can read up on this or something? That's such a shame man. |

YES, I have and will continue to support this site and all artists that I enjoy on here. Since I found this site I have bought more cd's and listened to more tracks from you guys than I have from other commercial artists. There are over 100 XLT artists here, I suggest you take the time to listen and appreciate their music because a lot of it is just as good (if not better) than anything you will fing out there. |

I am overly happy to help out the nice people here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's a lot of talented artists on this board. i try my best to listen + comment on tracks that get posted as much as i can. certainly i'm interested in buying their albums if they are available. i won't name names, but i'm totally into that. so i say, spam away. :) ps - |

it's ALL about what dog_belch said. |

if this group of people were to seriously unite because moved by such a compelling force, it would have happened a long time ago. There are plenty of people here to create one of the worlds coolest and serious places for electronic music, they just need to know they can. |

so the relevance to this poll is, holy jesus christ i'm high off my ass. |
||||||||

|

id support someone if they were my really good friend in real life..... if I didnt like it. if i did like it id support anyone. im not going to buy a record beacuse someone I know made it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol... that explains it :) seriously, i think this site is already the coolest place where like-minded musicians converge. since finding this place, i've been able to work with musicians all over the world - it's awesome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i can't follow the sense of your post |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
REFLEX that is. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Depends on the individual. Would I do it? Yes I have in the past. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If I enjoy what they do, yes. I would purchase a record if it was something that I knew I would listen to more than once or twice. It's only fair. I would hate it if someone bought a release of mine just because they're friends with me, etc. I want you to have it because you genuinely enjoy it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm with clic. although.. i like lots of the music here, so I probably would buy the record (if it was available, and I had a bit more money...) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I enjoy listening to the mp3's people post and a lot of them are release quality. So YES, I would pay for tracks from several artists on here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Same as for other music. If it's good-yes. If it was bad, I'd rather buy something else, than support a fellow XLT-member just because he/she is that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Depends whether I like the music and/or how well I know the individual... For example: I'd buy A 12" of Skeptopotamus' - Orust Cottage in a second, even though I've hardly talked to him on the board. If it's a friend, I'll buy a copy unless the music isn't to my taste. It still has to be decent, but I wouldn't demand the same high standards I would when buying a comparative stranger's stuff. |

I support Celtic FC |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I will only buy something if I like it. I support good music, not good people. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, hey hey ! man . thanks. same for you and anyone else on this board !! (pretty much). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love this lazy link!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think that i would def. be more likely to buy something w/o hearing it having spoken to someone on this board it makes you feel as though your supporting someone you know that feels good as opposed to supporting, say, kool keith, who spends all his record money on whores and booze yes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ha, i also noticed the aphex symbol at the bottom of tha page is finally intact! and the background of the reply box is almost the same shade as the regular bg. that's scary. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am planning buying some records made by posters here and watmm but I need time |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it was a cd-r label i was on back in 2003. they closed due to the owner having to re-evaluate his priorities - i had two full-length albums released through them, that are now discontinued. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'd buy decent music that i liked... i don't think it'd make any difference whether they were a board member or not, unless they were a really good friend. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah I relate to you on that one. I prefer supporting good music by good people and I'll gladly fund those I know will support the greater good in this world. That is true beyond music even. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
at first i forgot that i bought rarndaraki's band's album, which is very good, btw. i might buy a hummer album. if my options are "buy it," "don't buy it," or "avoid supporting it," i can't produce a meaningful answer unless you identify a specific recording. i can't imagine why anyone would just buy any album that any member made just to "support" the community. i can't see how association with the community would make any difference at all. |
||||||||

|
wouldn't you just give your music to your friends instead of expecting them to give you money for it? |
