Question for John Geek? Thanks for your insight on the success of the 'boutique' indie labels of the late 90's. You attribute success to the focus these labels had on specific and recognizable styles (in addition to the committment and passion of the key people at the label). In fact you point out that some indie labels that diversified struggled as they took on acts that were different than their core or original acts.
What do you attribute that to? Were the successful labels that stayed focused riding the hot style of the day (or perhaps driving it!)?
If you care to respond at my blog, I will forward it to drummercous. Many thanx.
Thanks for your many great observations as an experienced label operator to my blog about the future of "micro" labels and managers. I tried to advance the discussion on just a few of your points with my comments in turn.
