fuck man what the fuck. Who even likes drum and bass
Hang on... Let me try and justify my feelings by quickly talking numbers.
These aren't outrageously more expensive than plates I usually grab, about €10 per record, up from the usual €7. Whatever I guess. I can buy that gatefold exclusive collector blah blah is bought for an extra 3 bucks.
So let's say the vinyl purchases are about evenly split between signed copies and regular old four-pieces at an average €45. That means if this run of 1000 copies sells out, our dutch boys have netted €45.000. For sure not all of that goes to the three of them, but that's $60k+, which is about twice what I make in a year before anybody's even thought about digital sales.
Not to discourage anyone from buying it, the artwork and presentation are mint, and the tracks I'm sure are awesome. Power to Noisia, thats the dream! It just makes me feel a little less like I'm supporting the scene and music I love and more like whatever man... I'll just catch it on Google Play.
Anyway, fuck. I feel better now
