endingThe famous Go Bananaz blog which used to offer pirated mp3s for djs and releases illegaly spreaded, alongside with proper and legal promotions for djs – has shut its doors ealier this Month. The owner and maintainer has departed his blog with some decent fair well words and thoughts about the illegal music blogs and their relationships with the labels.

I could also bring up the debate whether to blog or not to blog, and what the record labels and huge artists think about it. Here’s my true point of view: When a producer is new in the scene, he is doing everything he can to be published at blogs and such (I’ve been getting LOADS, and LOADS of emails by talents wanting me to publish them), but as soon as you’re coming up in to the B- or A-class of producers, everything about blogs seems to purely suck and you start hating the blogs for publishing your tracks. I believe that blogs are a great way to promote stuff, whether your a big or small producer (or label) – although you have probably noticed that the big labels have been doing their job quite well by disabling most of my links here at the blog, so here’s my response: Come on, if you don’t want me to give you free promotion, then please write me an email and we’ll sort it out – I don’t bite.

the letter is quite long and definitely worth reading since it reveals a lot of the aspects of running a blog/magazine for electronic music and Djing, for better or worse, we at thcdj, promise to keep up with you guys. (for the meanwhile at least <3)
