Netlabel Research Report

Awhile back, I was invited to fill out a questionnaire as part of a research project on netlabels due to my curation of Stasisfield. The results of that research have now been posted in a report over at Phlow Magazine. While the results are somewhat predictably lopsided (most netlabels characterize their music as electronic - no big shock there), they are nonetheless still fascinating to wade through. Patryk Galuszka, the Max Planck Researcher who conducted the surveys, has done an incredibly thorough job in this first phase of research on the topic, and if you’re at all interested in the free music movement you should check out his results.
