WHAT IS THE POINT?

 there are a few "points" to this label,


1. CAPITALISM HAS NO PLACE IN INDEPENDENT ART

this is the message,

the massage is cheap tapes

sure its a bit of an exaggeration, but capitalist thought and tendencies are deeply ingrained in "art"

artists deserve a living wage

however, the people selling their art & capitalizing off their art want to make as much as possible off them

for as little effort as possible

 

2. YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU WANT

 seriously, try it now

isn't it cool what you just did?

isn't it cooler than using a preset in garageband or fl studio?

you could have drawn some familiar thing

or done a bunch of polka dots

but you did a thing unique to you,

probably something that no one else did

or maybe someone else did do that

find that person through your ESP and be friends with them

which leads me to the third point


3. COMMUNITY IS WHAT WE NEED

right now, the people in power want my friends and neighbors dead

how can we keep them alive?

looking out for each other

art can create amazing communities in the most unlikely places,

in the most unlikely times

currently this label is deep in the financial hole

and that is the point

however, come a time where we receive any form of excess funds

that will go right back to the community

to helping my friends and neighbors

and the artists i love


those are the points


i hope that this label ends up transcending a record label.

i hope that i end up releasing something that is popular on Instagram, and leads all the tiktok HXC kids to look at punk history

look at the power you have to fight modern fascism if you go beyond the JUD JUD JUD
