haha, if only that were the truth, but it's not.
how can I say that? well one of our releases got leaked and didn't even sell 100 copies, where we would usually sell 500+.
According to shops, DJ's and club play it should have easily sold more then 500 AND be repressed.
We didn't give the next release to anyone - no promos, no freebies and guess what, we sold 800...
On a small scene those people will buy, BUT only if they have no way of getting it for free.
on a bigger scale I've seen compilation CD's shrink from 300,000 copies to less than 20,000... in a very short space of time.
