Ektoplazm needs your help!


Recommended Posts

Wow rotwang you really took the plunge! 600$ is a lot of money! You inspiration, you.

 

Woohoo...nice one Rotwang. Ten times my amount! You probably set a "," at the wrong position in PayPal, no? ;)

 

Nah, just kidding. I probably should donate more, given the amount of great albums I downloaded from there....shame on me. :(

Thanks guys, but tbh I can't take much credit - I have a load of money I didn't earn on account of some deceased relatives, and I don't doubt Ektoplazm deserves it more than I do.

regardless that is still generous.

By the way this is a little worrying

" An expanded musical scope: we’d like to feature many more styles of independent electronic music without descending into multi-genre chaos. Only follow the styles you are personally interested in!"

 

I can already imagine in the near future you have dedicated pages for trance, dubstep, etc. and the site will slowly descend into mainstream/casual site.

 

Let's hope I'm wrong :P

I hope you're wrong too :D

 

I certainly don't want it to become another mainstream portal... the goal here is simply to broaden the horizons to adjacent styles of electronic music. There's a lot of good stuff going on out there. I feel that limiting the offerings to a single style of electronic music is something of a suicide pact. Everything needs to grow and change in time.

 

Reddit does a great job of supporting niche communities while appealing to a broad audience. I'd like to follow something a little like that...

Looks like we made it with time to spare :) there's another 9 hours to the campaign if anyone would still like to contribute (the more the merrier). In the coming days I'll make a post about what happens next. Thanks again for everyone's support :) I'm excited to get to work!

A lot of work is going on behind the scenes :) I might not be so visible on forums and such for a while as I gear up to get things done... watch the blog for more announcements; there will be some big ones before long!

 

Thanks again for all the support and help in making this dream a reality!
