Drag City offer FLAC

[grahamd Linn Staff]

Don't know when this occured, but some people here at Linn recently noticed that one of our favourite record labels now offers FLAC downloads for its new releases and much of its back catalogue as well.

Cool.

@Graham

I have a vision of Linn staff in drag, but I am sure that's not what this is about!

Thanks for the heads up Graham, this is very cool indeed.

Although it leads to a kind of dilemma, as DC are making beautiful vinyl as well.
Anyway, I'll start my downloading spree tonight

Cheers,

Only band on the site that I recognise is Stereolab, but that's CD or LP only; I'll have to go listen to some of the DC ones I've not heard of before.

PS If you wanna try one of these out for size don't randomly pick Merzbow

Hi Graham

Nice one; thank you very much for the suggestions and I'll look forward to checking them out very soon.

Incidentally, when you refer to ‘these quarters’; are you referring to that somewhat 'shady' quarter of the ground floor wing in which the R&D dept resides?

PS Say hi to your dodgy desk-neighbours from me (but don’t wake them all up specially)

These quarters = me, and those people with a similar taste to me.

i.e. the hopeful projection of my taste onto a possibly fictional community that lives, I fear, only in my head

At least your fictional head-based community are likely sane; my lot are completely barking and thus frequently drive me to strong drink
