When conversations stray to the subject of the evil rapacious publishing overlords and their campaigns of human domination, I am always quick to pursue the point that the answer lies not in somehow forcing "them" to loosen their grip on their intellectual property. The obvious moral high road lies in seeking out such artists as are pursuing a compatible philosophy of distribution. If nothing else, Loca Records gots philosophy in spades, frankly a little bit more than I necessarily need in a music website. And I'm still waiting for the progressive activist music commune that's cranking out radio-friendly bubblegum pop instead of moody european ambient lo-fi concept, but in the meantime... Bonus points are assigned because their merchandise is not transacted through freaking Cafe Press, but instantly deducted because their entire inventory is sold out. They regain points in the balance for having some of their catalog available on the charmingly anachronistic medium of vinyl.

Practice download etiquette: Rather than just clicking on MP3 links, please right click + "save as" (Windows) or control+click and "Download Linked File" (Mac). It will reduce the artists' bandwidth demands!
