backstage2On March 5th, 2002 Sublime Exile Recordings first opened it’s doors and on the 20th the same month we celebrated with a great showcase on the famous club Loppen in the free town Christiania, in Copenhagen, Denmark. We were announcing three new acts playing live in front of an excited audience. We had three new albums to be released. Albums we’d been working on for quite some time and we had a great new distribution collaboration with a newcomer called Playground Music Scandinavia. It was all set for success and our first release with Kira and the kindred spirits received massive attention as it hit the streets on June 17. In November the same year we received a Grammy Award for best new talent with Racing Ape. We were also working with bands like The girl on the death row, in our studio. Later renowned as The Raveonetts. Both Sune Wagner and Sharin Foo appears on our second release Pilot Fatique by Pleasure Machine released on August 12. Well, enough said. It’s been 11 great years. Initially in the spotlight, later in the shades of all the dull this business includes. Below you’ll see a great never before seen video by Kira and the kindred spirits taken from that very evening. The wondershare logo in the upper video corner indicates the software used only and has off course nothing to do with the band. Enjoy !

New Fake album !

The Fake album !

The long awaited debut album to Fake is finally set to be released on January 6, 2013 and includes no less than 14 smash hits. All approx. 3 minutes long for secure radio play.

You license again !

We have rejoined the youlicense.com community.

In 2007 we first joined the licensing community youlicense.com. However, we left a couple of years later in an attempt to try flying on our own wings. Together with our latest cooperation with Soundcloud + Getty Images we hope that this will take us to higher grounds, over the hills, in to the skies.

New signing !

We have signed a new band to the label !

We’d like to welcome our latest signing Ur Knall to the label. Ur Knall is like nothing else, a unique international collective kneaded, pasted and glued together by LaVin. The epicentre of the band is Budapest and Berlin, with seismic waves in Brisbane and Beijing. Members of the band also play with classical, jazz, punk, rock and music theatre projects.

First time we heard Ur Knall was a demo sent to our inbox. We thought it sounded crazy and was wondering why such music had come our way.

Honestly we were not listening very much to it and turned it off quite immediately. But something called us back. Ur Knall – something about it. So we decided to give it some more of our pressures time 🙂 and jumped in to it and found out it includes a lot of music. Crazy but great music and totally unpredictable. Like you probably would hear on a 13th century market square but with electric guitars and strange whispering voices. We like the unpredictable. There’s nothing like it !

Ur Knall is making music on their live sets and not in studio. Everything is recorded live. Often with no breaks and some songs turn out to be over 30 minutes long. Sometimes even longer. The music is of course rehearsed but anything can come to a live set and so it does.

We thought their music needed more attention and so we decided to release all their music as soon as possible and first release is “Quasimodo….”

There are at least four more releases to come but at this very moment we are not sure when and what to release as we are working on that right now.

Quasimodo session musicians are:

Jan Fretwurst: guitar, percussion (drums on Harangok)
Yacop Warnecke: bass (sampler on You Say Time is Money)
Jano Ujvari: saxophon, keyboard, effects
Kari Lehoczki: drums, perc
LaVin Virag: voice, didgeridoo, jews harp, percussion, harp

 
GO TO THE CATALOG TAB ABOVE TO VIEW ALL RELEASES !

“Quasimodo das Baerchen holt Papa aus der Kneipe ab” is released on June 17, 2012 on selected stores throughout the Internet.

Collected reviews:
  • Alternance de jazz, de rock, de prog et de psychédélique, un détonnant et étonnant cocktail. C’est fou, délirant, presque sans limites, sans retenue. Personnellement j’adore ca. Ca vit, ca bouge, ca pulse. Loin du carcan des stéréotypes, une musique libre. Par contre, au niveau de la voix, ca reste moyen. Plus des vociférations qui n’apporte pas grand chose. En tout cas, un univers sonore particulier, original et unique. Rebel Raiser
  • Surpris de trouver que troll ici .je reviens sur mes coups de coeur déjà ancients .car l’ensemble de l’oeuvre de urknall est passionnante oscillant entre rock ,prog, jazz,…beaucoup d’influences présente 70 t et bauhaus …free… contemporaines ,expérimentales …bref.j’adhère et conseille aux amateurs cherchant de la personnalité chez les artistes ,écouter urknall vous serez ravis …pure créations artistique que beaucoup de nous recherchons ici …merci a vous les créateurs de cet univers unic. Bravo ! Ziko Keur
  • Un album progressive jazz à nombreuses incrustations acoustiques et rock. A very nice album ! Thanks. Troll 69
  • Jazz rock that mangles with your head…Ur Knall are without doubt a mind-blowing musical narcotic. Intense rambling jamming with mesmerising scitzo-rhythms and spontaneous mushroom-meandering tonal diatribes. Bloody fantastic !  Voz De Sangue
  • Great! – this is progressive underground jazz-like accoustic trance freestyle new whatever music. i would like to compare to Mr. Mangelsdorff, but there is a lot more to this. I love the sound, which seems to be created all accoutically. People who are open to new ways of Jazz and different approches to Rock should listen to this. … auf Deutsch: oberaffengeile mucke!  Ren van Hirk

YouTube’s DMCA Abuse and Indie Labels: How Google is Blowing it for the Honest People

Music Technology Policy

In a speech at Canadian Music Week, Beggars Group Chairman Martin Mills was not only right, he was prescient:

Google, the parent of YouTube, [is] one of the companies that have made billions on the back of [the DMCA notice and takedown,] a statutory provision intended to protect ordinary people acting innocently.

Google has now refined the DMCA to a tool to leverage its anticompetitive activities.  Here’s how it works.

1.  Google opens the YouTube platform to unauthorized “user generated content” and says to artists (literally in this case) “Does yuse wants to play whack a mole or make some dough?”  This is called the notice and shakedown.

2.  Google then jams a settlement down the throats of major labels and sticks it to everyone else.  Publishers are next.

3.  Google pays the lowest royalty online with a big advance to majors and spaghetti statements to everyone else that probably…
