  • I wouldn’t really call it “missing” while it seems kinda shocking at first that labels take that much of a cut, people don’t really realise just how many people are involved in music production. From marketing to designers to video editors, social media teams, managers that get them interviews and talk shows and spots at festivals etc. And then all the overhead that comes with those jobs, so finance, HR, IT and facilities etc.

    So 1/3 is actually pretty decent and a much bigger cut of the profits than most people get from their labour.

















  • If you can’t grow your own or go to farmers market. Get them when it’s early in the season (I.e. now) as a big reason they usually taste like shit is because they are harvested unripe and then ripen in transit, which causes them to be light in colour, watery and have that white centre to them.

    But early in the season they are /more likely/ to be allowed to ripen on the plant.

    I’ve been eating loads of strawberries this past week from my local big chain supermarket and they have mostly been amazing (and cheap too)
