P2P (Pole-to-Peer) Music Distribution

Forget Radiohead and Price's half-hearted independant distribution efforts, Toronto band the Craft Economy have been taping copies of their debut EP to telegraph poles, along with the posters advertising their upcoming shows. For those without access to a Canadian telegraph pole, you can also download the music from their website, under a licence that permits non-commercial sharing, unlike Radiohead and Prince's latest releases.

I'm listening to the EP at the moment. It's nice melodic power-pop reminiscent of Australian bands the Hummingbirds, the Falling Joys, or the Clouds.

After a few weeks I'm really

After a few weeks I'm really becoming rather smitten with this record. Along with the Windupdeads, this is becoming a high-rotation favourite from the last month or two.
