Nu Urban Music – one of the largest Drum and Bass of distributors, went bankrupt, which means that some artists and producers may not get their money for the sale of their work. This undermines the revival of vinyl, which has been observed on the musical stage in recent years.
Drum and Bass is one of the leading genres that is currently using vinyl currently. Many labels continue to print notes despite the heyday of digital DJing. The loss of Nu Urban Music may not affect everyone – distributors as ST Holdings continue to work successfully – but it will definitely affect the genre, especially in the USA, where Nu Urban was one of the Little DNB stage.
This will hit the Jump UP sub-junra especially strongly, because almost 100% of the Jump UP tracks were distributed by NU Urban.
One of the Jump UP DJ, known as Jaydan, wrote on Twitter:
Mampi Swift: It’s there (On Nu Urban) your label was, yes? Damn it, you got something from them?
Jaydan: My entire catalog, my home Mr-jones-casino.org.uk collection for both labels and money for the apartment is subject to sale. lol
Here is a list of labels that worked with Nu Urban: as doctor P and Flux Pavilion, Circus Recordings, Playaz, Viper, Undiluted, Spearhead, Congo Natty, Charge, Clear Skyz, and Audio Porn. Some of them, such as Circus and Playaz, are large enough to safely survive the bankruptcy of the company, but it is unlikely to be so lucky to smaller Lebllam.
Twitter begins to fill up the thanks from Nu Urban for their many years of work. Some indicate quality control as the main cause of bankruptcy.
One DJ wrote:
Deejay Rowney: Business is a business and this decline has killed a lot of business departures. We are grateful for what Nu Urban has done for us, this is 100%.
And here is what another user wrote:
Jamie: Nu Urban closes – this is a sign of time, but it is also, without a doubt, and a lesson about quality control.
It will be interesting to see what will happen to the vinyl side of the DNB in the coming years: maybe someone else will stand in place Nu Urban, or maybe someone will go down from there.
Point out errors, inaccuracies of translation and other consequences of my hearing.
Elitarity here is unlikely to be a place, because in the last century vinyl was the main carrier.
Vinyl is now buying either collectors or the same “vintage” DJs, and not all of them billionaires.
Sonya will not be clinked unambiguously, because the age of digital technology is simply not profitable.
Well, the news is narrowly fired for those who are in the topic. Something like “The guitarist from the Slipknot group died”.
Vinyl and so was an elite bzik for lovers of high-fi, as unique ones continued to buy a sound tract with the columns of diamond spraying for hundreds of oil, and continue. And if necessary, then for them by specialist Sony Musik will replace this vinyl. As if, the news is about anything, today the artist cannot live on the royalties from the disks, times have changed, the main earnings and so it goes exclusively from concerts.
