4. Cass: Detroit Connection

Post by higherlimits »

Do you find yourself trying to do put out releases from bands in your area? Is this a conscious thing, something to help promote and expand the musical community of your area, or is it simply a logistics thing?

In the beginning I didn't want Cass to be pegged as a "local label" because I felt the term had a negative connotation. So while I did local releases, I wanted to be broad in my geographical scope. As time as has gone by, I've realized that local labels are vital and necessary in music history, perhaps even moreso than a labels of any other ilk. I wish that I'd paid more attention to that aspect in the past, but my worldly tastes and karmic debt to French garage bands presents Cass as otherwise. So now I kinda straddle the line, but with this longing for Detroit I find myself edging more and more towards releasing bands from there.
