Got a feature on I-f up on the Skinny: http://www.skinny.com Here's a quote that didn't make the final cut: (On the major label offers that came in the wake of "Space Invaders":) "It could have made a lot of money for me man—big black BMW and leather suits and stuff. Cool, but again I’m doing what I don’t want to do—being a slave to a company—like number 10,500. And, ‘Oh this guy called, this annoying guy with a big mouth,’ you know. I’m not ready for that shit…I fought hard to be where I am right now, for these few cents. [Money] makes my life easier, definitely; I need money too, I have to pay rent, I want to release records. But not on those terms, because I know I have something to offer, and not just me, the posse, the scene. Everybody’s on a roll—I’m not going to sell that out, for only one year. So of course I would love to talk to the majors if they were very interested, but if they’re not, it’s fine with me too. I’ll just continue the daily struggle." There's also some reviews of Push Button, Soul Oddity, Meat Beat Skam, and some other goodies: http://www.skinny.com/music/reviews/ thanks for the minute of your time, darren
