A message from Terre Thaemlitz about MP3 downloads
(May 2007)

I am currently working on a completist MP3 archive containing every track I have ever produced, which will be available at some point in 2008 on a single DVD-R (+/- 400 titles, 224kpbs compression rate, tentative title: Dead Stock Archive). [Update: Revised to 320kbps MP3, +700 titles, release date February 11, 2009.]

Please note that nobody has legal permission from me to sell MP3 downloads of my music - not iTunes, not e-music, not anyone. They are selling my music illegally. They and the distributors they deal with have no contracts with me, and do not pay me a single penny of your purchase cost. They continually ignore my written requests to have my works removed from their profit-engines, knowing that the money at issue is less than the cost of my hiring a lawyer to resolve this ongoing mess. Please do not pay those mainstream corporate assholes for downloads of my music! They complain about MP3 copy protection issues while deliberately and systematically stealing from independent producers like myself - and consumers like you! Make no mistake, they are the music pirates to worry about!

To make matters worlse, several of my CD's use small 4-second tracks as spacing devices to conceal "hidden bonus tracks" under mysterious track numbers, etc. (For example, the album Yesterday's Heroes 1979 contains 11 songs, but the CD is indexed with 79 tracks in all.) I have noticed that most of the online distributors have these silent spacers also listed for sale! Other albums, such as Interstices with its 31 short tracks relying upon continuous play, make absolutely no sense to download track-by-track, sonically or financially. Please don't waste your money on such downloads.

The only way your financial support reaches me in any way is by ordering from this website. If you are unable or uninterested in financially supporting me directly by ordering through this website, I prefer that you share or steal my music rather than pay somebody else. This is not about my anger as an "author" (as many of you know, I am very critical of standard notions of authorship). Personal finances are also not the issue, since my projects are clearly not "hit oriented" and have minimal sales potential. I am more than resigned to my lowly economic standing in this world. This is about my anger at pointless corporate greed, and the ways in which information is controlled and distributed under global capitalism.

Meanwhile, please enjoy the free downloads below.

テーリ・テムリッツからMP3ファイルのダウンロードについて伝言
(2007年5月)

私は現在、今までに私が作ったトラックすべてを網羅するMP3アーカイブを作成中です。このアーカイブは2008年中に完成の予定で、1枚のDVD-Rに収録される予定です。(約400前後のタイトル、224kpbsコンプレッション、仮題:デッドストックアーカイブ)
(アップデート:320kbps MP3、+700曲、21年2月11日のリリースになりました)

MP3ダウンロードについて皆様にご留意願いたいことがあります。それはiTunesやe-musicを含め、誰も私の音楽をMP3ファイルダウンロードで販売する合法的権利を持っていません。いまMP3ファイルを売っている第3者はすべて違法に販売しています。ネット上の配信者、そしてその配信者に音楽を売る販売者は私といかなる契約も交わしていません。またあなたが購入した金額のうち1円たりとも私に払われる分は含まれていません。業者たちは、その商業サイトから私の音楽を削除するよう書面で要請しても無視し続けます。なぜなら現在Web上でダウンロードされる音楽からあがるであろうの私の利益よりも、私が弁護士を雇ってこのとまらない困った問題を解決する費用のほうが高くつくことを知っているからです。 どうかこのような主流にいる企業の馬鹿どもに、私の音楽をダウンロードしてお金を払わないでください。こいつらはMP3ダウンロードの複製問題について不服を申し立てる一方で意図的にそして組織的に、私のような個人(インディペンデント)のプロデューサーたちからーそしてあなたのような消費差からも、盗みを続けているのです。間違わないでください、彼らこそが我々が心配すべき音楽海賊なのです。

さらに最悪なのは、私のCD作品の中には不思議なトラック番号で「隠しボーナストラック」を表示するためなどに、4秒の小トラック(無音)をスペーサーとして使用しているのです。(例えばアルバム「Yesterday’s Heroes 1979」は11曲収録ですが、CDをプレーヤーに入れると全部で79トラックと表示されます) しかしほとんどのオンラインの業者達は、この無音のスペーサーとして利用されているトラックを販売リストに載せいているのです!  またIntersticesなどのアルバムは31トラックを連続して演奏することによって1曲が構成されているような曲が収録されているのですが、その場合1トラックごとにダウンロードしても、音楽的にも、経済的にも全く意味がないのです。だからこのような曲のトラックごとのダウンロードみたいなことでお金を無駄にしないでください。

あなたの経済的援助が私に届く唯一の方法は、とにかく私のウェッブサイトから注文して頂くのみです。もしあなたが私を、私のウェッブサイトを通して直接経済的に援助できない、またはしたくない場合は、ほかの誰かから買うのではなく、ただどこからかコピーするか盗んでくださったほうがまだ嬉しいです。 私がこういうのは私の著作者としての怒りからではありません(たぶんたくさんの方がご存知の事と思いますが私は著作者という標準的な概念にとても批判的です)。私の個人的な経済的利益も特に問題ではありません。なぜなら最初から私のプロジェクトはヒット指向でないことは明らかですし、ごくわずかな売上 の可能性しかありません。

私はこの世界で、低い経済的基盤しかないことをもはや観念しています。私の怒りは意味のない企業的貪欲に対して、そして世界的資本主義の下、情報が抑制され配信されるそのやり方についてなのです。

しばらくの間、どうかこの下のフリーダウンロードから曲をお楽しみください。

DJ Sprinkles: Midtown 120 Blues
back to top | release homepage | リリースのホームページ



DJ Sprinkles' debut full length album released August, 2008, by Mule Musiq (Japan: mulemusiq.com & myspace.com/mulemusiq), continues with themes from 1998's "Sloppy 42nds: A tribute to the 42nd Street transsexual clubs destroyed by Walt Disney's buyout of Times Square" (a track recently featured on Ame's "Coast2Coast" DJ mix compilation for NRK Records). While the world celebrates the revial of New York House Music, constructing utopian fictions about the genre as it goes along, DJ Sprinkles retreats deep into the bowels of house. This is the rhythm of empty midtown dancefloors resonating with the difficulties of transgendered sex work, black market hormones, drug & alcohol addiction, racism, gender & sexual crises, unemployment, and censorship.

[Excerpt] The Third Communist International - A Word from Comrade Lenin

The International Congress of Communists took place in March of this year 1919, in Moscow. This congress has founded the Third Communist International, the union of workers of all the world, aspiring for the establishment of Soviet authority in all countries. The First International, founded by [Karl] Marx, existed from 1854 to 1872. The defeat of the heroic Parisian workers of the well-known Commune of Paris meant the end of this International. It's unforgettable, it is eternal in the history of struggle by workers, and ready for the clearing. It has laid the foundation for the world socialist Republic of which we now have the joy of building. The Second inter-country International existed from 1909 for 1914, before the war. This time was the time of the quietest and most peaceful development of capitalism, the time without great revolutions. The Working-class movement has gotten stronger and has grown up during this time in a number of the countries. But some participants of [indecipherable] workers parties of the majority, having become accustomed to peaceful times, have lost their ability for revolutionary struggle. When the war which filled the ground with blood in four years, a war between capitalists that began in 1914 [indecipherable] through authority over small and weak people. Those socialists came over to the party of governors. They have changed sides. They have helped to tighten the massacre. They became enemies of socialism. They came over to the party of capitalists. Tons of workers have turned away from these traitors of socialism. A turn toward revolutionary struggle all over the world has begun. War has shown that capitalism has lost. Times have changed, there is a new order. The old word "socialism" was dishonoured by traitors of socialism. The fair workers, who have remained true to the business of overthrowing the yoke of capitalism, name themselves "communists." The union of communists grows all over the world. In a number of countries Soviet Authority has already won. It will not be long before we shall see the victory of Communism all over the world, we shall see the basis of the World Federal Republic of Advice. [Translation: Kira Kaunert]
