ODAL + factor X – Riptide Diagram new cassette release

https://preview.redd.it/kky77o2el4vd1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=af62b0473a6f38869786a26c13f115270ad12a55

New release from my tape label, for those who like experimental / musique concrète / industrial stuff. A reissue of a release from my old Industrial label, Chainsaw Cassettes.

It’s here! Our latest release: ODAL + factor X – Riptide Diagram (PST018).Two legendary names from the late ’80s / early ’90s cassette underground, in collaboration.

Shaun Robert (factor X) started recording and making music since the age of 8 using tape machines by utilising the pause button, crash editing sounds together.

Odal (Peter Zincken) is a noise/industrial artist from Amsterdam, who has been recording since the mid-1980s.This is a re-release of their collaboration from 1991, originally released on the Chainsaw Cassettes label.

In keeping with the original Chainsaw ethos, the cassette is home dubbed on re-purposed 60 minute TDK-D tape. Limited to 25 copies only.

You can grab one from our website here - https://personalsoundtracks.co.uk/.../odal-factor-x.../

Or you can preview the cassette and get the digital version on Bandcamp. https://odalfactorx.bandcamp.com/album/riptide-diagram-2

GEMA vinyl reissue

Hi, I'm starting a vinyl label in Germany. We are preparing a reissue of an album by an artist from Sweden. We already have the deal worked out, including royalties, etc. The band is affiliated with the Swedish STIM. Do I still need to register my release with GEMA and pay royalties to them?

so if you're a band that plays emo, screamo, emoviolence, skramz, emocore, sasscore, kittencore, etc. do hit us up here or at our email at strayliberties@gmail.com . we also don't mind submissions for shoegaze/blackgaze/midwestemo too! the emo-adjacent community is very much welcomed.

Anyone printing matte stock covers online?

I'm shopping around for options for to get some release covers printed. I've designed everything around standard A3 sizes, I can cut, fold and glue myself, I just need a website that's willing to do A3, both sides, and any kind of thick quality matte paper, say 200-250g. In the EU would be a bonus. This is a limited initial release run, so I'm looking to see if it pays to print small quantities on-demand online, or if I should just spring for a large run at a local printing company.

Charitapes - Vol. 4 (20 songs from unsigned artists) is out now!

Charitapes - Vol. 4 is officially out!

This installment features 20 songs from talented unsigned artists from around the world. 100% of the proceeds will benefit a non-profit called Kennel To Couch, whose mission is to partner with shelters to get "at-risk" pit bulls adopted, and help to end the negative stigma surrounding the breed through education and resource distribution. Cassettes are available to pre-order now through May 20, 2024. However many tapes ordered in that time is how many will be made. I hope you hear something on here that you like!

Our first release is ready! What should I do next?

So, we finished our first small batch of cassettes, and are gonna sell some at shows, but I think because of this niche community we should look in to ways to build a following through bandcamp or social media. Does anyone have any advice?
