New netlabel release: Kyoto 13 is out
July 1, 2006It’s available for download, along with previous releases, at Kyoto’s site.
For those that are not familiar with the phenomenon, there are numerous labels which forgo the actual releasing of music on physical media. These netlabels allow free downloads of their music, which is often released under a creative commons license or something similar. For more information about this phenomenon, the curious reader can consult the generous collection of such labels hosted by the folks at archive.org.
So far as the release goes, however, it’s nothing special. Standard digi-dub, enough to please the ear for a few moments but with nothing superlative or consequential. This one is maybe marginally better than the usual fare of the label. Those who come to a similar conclusion might want to check out some slightly better labels in the same vein, like instabil or groovear.
