first merck, now component.. :(
-- -- www.componentrecords.com
december 15, 2005: after six years we've decided to close down component. this has been a difficult decision and we've given a lot of thought to it, but for a number of reasons we feel this is the correct thing to do. -- --

Shit they are probably going to do a new label but in the mean time the shop will remain open and hopefully, thanks to this new 'we're closing' marketing drive, will improve sales of shit they can't shift any other way.

I've heard proem, gridlock and assuming it is the same panacea who did Low Profile Darkness (which was pretty good), panacea.

How the fuck did CODEC manage to run a label while juggling his mass media commitments? No wonder he is closing the label he is probbly worn out after his shift in McDonalds.

I hope somebody is keeping a record of all this behind the scenes action, and then in years to come there'll be a film like "24 hour Party People" but edited really wildly.
I won't rest until EVERY SINGLE small IDM label closes, that will be my role in this great drama.

I aim to start one that will have 2 releases and then close because of people sharing hte music on Soulseek.
I will claim to start the label for the love of music and to receive monetary gain elsewhere.
Would you care for a limited Grinning Ape release on this label?

Yes, I'm keen. After months of being at the cutting edge of the electronic vanguard, one whiff of the paypal and I'll bend over doing drillcore and cut up breaks with pads like the best of them.

I'm actually working on a track at the moment called "mostly pads and cut up breaks". Perhaps we could do a various artists tribute compilation to small IDM labels called, "Come in IDM; Your time is up!", or, "Game Over, Glitchcore"?

he likes to stroke himself off while on this site
mainly due to the fact that no music has come out to his liking in over 15 years
he probably should be in an archive somewhere

he's old, jaded, and can't buy a thrill that isn't derived from nostalgia. for this reason, he believes, the world around him must suffer.

Oh yes, just fucking pile it on, why don't you, join in together. It's not me that's closing down after six years lack of interest. I'll keep going, you fuckers. The world around me must suffer, it must, for its own good. I'm right, I'm always right, and in your heart of hearts, you know this to be true.
Ceri JC: I support you fully. The only way to end this genre is to compile THE SINGLE MOST CONTRIVED COLLECTION OF IDM TRACKS on one MASSIVE net release.
Now that's what I call IDM vol. 1

i don't understand what the point even is of starting a record label and releasing the same handful of artists that each have their own limited edition CDR with hand painted covers or little minidiscs or whatever the fuck. obviously proem would be on this label, he seems to be the Big Name in this scene.

actually, d_b, it's taken you far less than six years to close up shop. but i imagine you'll find a way to pat yourself on the back for doing it.
"Just as you're special I will do but it will be THE LAST musical folly (not to be confused with the musical "Follies") that I ever do. The Ape has failed, history was not changed, electronic music didn't die, no one
was happy and everyone was sad."

Grinning Ape went into voluntary liquidation, it was inoperable. It failed, I admit that, but it only took me a few months to realise, not six years. But really it wasn't ME that failed, it was the AUDIENCE that failed ME. In 6 years time people will catch up with The Ape, and I'll open up shop again.

I dont understand why this is sad. Is there a lack of being realistic or something. For a label to be successful you need some large talent. These artists arent exactly the caliber of artist that gets people talking. The difference is in quality.
I admire their dedication to the dream of running a label or putting out a vinyl. They are putting forth time and effort into this. Good for them!
That said.... are we surprised that this is happening? This is a super small genre of music that (lets face it) is supported by mostly people that download the music in a collectors frenzy. Which is opposed to the actual paying customer... which seems to be quite a small percentage.

i think the cynics overreact to the : ( that comes with a small label folding. fact is, if you know the label at all and care about the music, then when that label folds you'll say, "too bad, i really liked that label."
it's like when a good friend moves away, you know it's not the end of the world, but there's still a little : (.
the "sadness" is just a measure of affection.
