Incursions into the territory of the regulation?

What are the limits of the CMJ Music Marathon? The event brings together just official showcases and discussion group, you need a badge ID $495? Or is it all official and unofficial shebang with all day shows and prohibited parties, whose proponents may or may not include "Regulation" in their ads?

Regulation and the South by Southwest, the big two conferences focused on the indie United States, have an uncomfortable with their periphery relationship. On the one hand, these organizations survive by selling insignia for admission, and they are always seeking asked people who exploit their festival popularity of without contributing to the bottom line.On the other hand, spreading unauthorized two conferences (South by Southwest is in Austin, Texas.) is so huge that official things may seem high, and for artists, the only significant paycheck week may come from auxiliary, backed with entreprises.Le party or not, they both need each other.

Everyone wants credit for putting on their own show, however, and the carpetbaggers sometimes forget that sweat - and marketing money - CMY organization is the only reason for which an audience is first. place up to now, this week, I've heard of two publicists companies requesting that their parties - including invitations had the letters C-M-D across their - will not be identified as the CTMR. In addition, you cannot be your cake and eat too.

This year the most controversial - or at least the newsiest-outside is the festival of # Offline for three days at Brooklyn Bowl, which is presented by Pitchfork, the indie-rock that supplant long ago the regulation as a bible for the Pitchfork scène.Lorsque announced the event there is a week - makes no mention of CMJ - website critics took a flight of Thunder as a rude to their rival, gesture. There are suspicious timing, the right location at the heart of Brooklyn indie. The range is really good: Thursday the first day features Surfer Blood, Times New Viking, the tiny black and Dave Sitek of TV, radio.

But it is an affront to RMC, or even significant competition?Step vraiment.Ou, at least that dozens of other unaffiliated to liquidate expand the footprint of the General Conference of all fa?on.Certains of the bands of # Offline do not play official storefronts, but most are.And $10 day ticket of # Offline - announced long after all college DJ would have made their plans to travel – could hardly be blamed for affecting the sales of the badge.(If anything it offered a welcome package: mid-evening Thursday, # Offline was complete but still more spacious than any showcase of badgeholders.)

> # Offline is the largest informal event and most RMC.Mais programmed tastefully, this means that a regulation thing is finally is under debate.
