Yeah I agree, you guys should buy them, especially if you make money from it through DJing and holding events etc.
I'd buy the CD singles of the tracks I really love if they were easily available, and if they were reasonably priced.
I guess at the moment, other than buying the odd CD occasionally, I and many of us here mainly support the scene by buying tickets to attend events. |
Profits from events, if there is profit, go to the promoter. The DJ fee, is what he's getting paid, 1 to work, and 2 to buy the tracks and practise.
Out of each vinyl purchased, ~$1.9AUD makes it way back to the Producer (I've lost the full break down, mind you). So by going to a club to support the scene, it doesn't really do much for the prouducer. If there's 600 people in a club or 1 person in the club, the producer's made the same money; ~$1.9 per track 1 time (IE only @ purchase).
It's good to see people out on the dance floor, that's awesome, it supports the local scene and DJ's (and god knows the local scenes need support ;) )

Whenever a track gets played the producer is supposed to get royalties, however I don't understand why that doesn't happen in the club scene. I thought that the DJ provided a track listing to the club/promoter and then they send it to APRA.
That's just what I thought was supposed to happen. |

Yeah that's what I thought is meant to happen too... similar to DVDs which have the startup warning saying that you're not allowed to play it in schools, hospitals, oil rigs, prisons, and clubs.
It's up to the event holders to sort out what they feel they should do. |

I don't think a record company going broke every now and then is a bad thing, nor does it necessarily mean that the scene is in bad shape. Capitalism creates winners and losers, unfortunately not everyone can be winners :( |

$1.90 per record sold isnt that bad a deal.
i think royalties for tracks played in clubs
would destroy the scene completely, so im glad
that this isnt happening. |

Shops get something like $5, $4 go 2 the label, and I can't remember the rest (I can probably find the real break down somewhere).
Radio stations have royalties, As do events like transmission (~7k ppl events in Syd)
