the man behind the label you love to hate...
meet rob stringer, the boss over at lovely sony-bmg....
i would usually just send this to david, but it says nothing interesting, pertinent or mind blowing about jamiroquai, but still wanted to share it with the jammunity. it's a super long read, but if you are a detailed music nerd like i...you'll dig the info. it's funny how there is so much mention about the positives of sony-bmg and nothing about the lawsuits, etc...the middle part gets kind of boring, but the end will make you laugh or smile a bit......"But, just in case the Manics might start to see him as "some sort of corporate twat", he wants to make one thing clear. "Music is still an art form," he says. "There's no way, coming from a background that is purely about the love of artists and records, that I would want it to be anything else. "We are not looking to sell music as a commodity. In Great Britain, more so than almost any market in the world, music is central to what people do and we don't want to change that."
