Pax Cecilia – Up one on the free music movement

It’s a shame that only the big guns get publicity. Take the hype about Radioheads latest release; only the shitty format was free, and more along that road: extras on the ‘real’ deal disc.

Pax Cecilia made a more noteworthy contribution to the ‘free music’-movement back in April when they released their new album.

Just give them your email, and they’ll send a real disc your way! Now that is service.

Instead of marketing teasers as free, 360 label deals, merch expansion (Fiddydiddy sweat anyone?) and crapping fans in the face, after they piss themselves (yes, fans aren’t that smart right now) – let’s all hope this merry holiday season brings us a world where talented musicians can find a way to make a living of music, without selling their souls to Starbucks or Walmart. Where a really good artist doesn’t need to promote some hideous clothing line or clean toilets while flipping burgers at McDonald’s.
