Hello Steve – The Rising From The Dread 12″ was my main want at this years RSD. After owning my original copy from time of release I was looking forward to hearing the new pressing. The price in the shops was all over the place, I purchased my copy for £19.99 but later the same day seen it for £11.99

Steve I have had reservations about the growing problems with RSD and the high prices that the records go for minutes later on ebay and im almost sure that some retailers are selling the stock on said internet site without even selling it in the first place for the correct prices, which are quite high enough already in my opinion .

As someone who had previously stood in the huge queues at Rough Trade for 5 to 6 hours to get some of the items and to find that a lot were sold out as only a few copies available only to find out when returning home that multiple copies on sale through ebay at 4 or 5 times the advertised price .

What should be a great promotional device for the growing reintroduction of vinyl has turned into a bit of a farce .Why make these releases in such small quantities it would appear the Major labels have hijacked the event using it to promote major artists which goes against the independent label idea that was first important in setting up this annual event .

Indeed many smaller labels are unable to get their own records pressed up because the majors are utilising all the pressing plants for their own means and are able to offer more clout .I did not take part this year at all as i think it has outgrown its small origins and is mainly putting monies into the major labels back catalogues .Do the likes of ,Deep Purple ,David Bowie ,Genesis and even to a certain extent the Sex Pistols need to put out countless reissues of easily obtained songs ??

Too true Spon. I enjoyed UK Decay at RSD couple of years back at Rough Trade. Last year most of the RSD releases seemed to be from the majors. I could see how it was headed and lost interest.

The lesson, as always, do it yourself.

Hi, I can verify that Steve Spon is an awesome producer. He’s easy to get on with and will coach the best out of the performance. His sound mixing skills are second to none and has a comprehensive knowledge of all areas of the recording process. If you are serious about your recording, then bag this man!
