all the felt albums used to be on there...
i really don't see the problem with labels refusing to stream their entire catalog for free...
― brimstead, Wednesday, 14 October 2015 22:41 (eight years ago) link
or virtually free or whatever
Owen Ashworth's catalog (Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, Advance Base) has been missing from Spotify for about a year, but this morning I saw he wrote a feature for Tidal promoting his record, so I guess it's on there. Must be an anti-Spotify thing a la Taylor Swift?
he's been pretty public about his hatred of Spotify et al, tweeted about it etc.

"Daddy's Gonna Pay for Your Crashed Car"—the only song off Zooropa that was for some reason not available on Spotify—is finally available.

i think pretty much everything by Radiohead will be up there as of tomorrow when the new one goes up. In Rainbows went up this week which had never been up there before iirc.

Just realized that Beatles Anthology is on now. Don't think that was part of their big Beatles roll out.

Pretty much every Les Savy Fav album is up including some weird live albums but not the "Rome (Written Upside Down)" EP.

Still no YMO, but there's pretty much everything by Ryuichi Sakamoto. Wonder what the issue is.

aluminum tunes by stereolab, not on iTunes either

That might be because it was released on Drag City
― badg, Friday, 10 March 2017 20:05 (seven years ago) link
hmm maybe, but that's just the US version and would've been licensed from Duophonic/Warp presumably? So that doesn't really explain it, because Refried Ectoplasm & Dots & Loops were released by Drag City as well.

Went looking for stuff on the DIW label (Japanese jazz imprint with a fuckton of amazing stuff in their catalog) and for some reason only David Murray's albums for them are on US Spotify. None of their Art Ensemble of Chicago records or anything else.

Still no Slade, hopefully reissue of 'Slade Alive' may get them on board.

― nashwan, Tuesday, 26 September 2017 14:02 (six years ago) link
I doubt there will be. De La can't legally reissue those records due to all the samples.
― President Keyes, Tuesday, 26 September 2017 14:09 (six years ago) link
wonder if thats why they released them all for free via their website a few years back.
― mark e, Tuesday, 26 September 2017 14:14 (six years ago) link
i wonder when the last of the uncleared samples on 3 Feet High & Rising will fall out of copyright. what was the most recent bit of music sampled on that anyway?

Owen Pallett's later albums, but not his Final Fantasy stuff. Troutmask Replica is not on there, but lots of other Captain Beefheart is

It was, and why they used the publicity from that to crowdfund a new record with no pre-existing samples.

De La can't legally reissue those records due to all the samples.
Started to think the samples issue was a red herring given the availability of countless other sample-heavy hip hop albums from the same era.

Aw yeah, just noticed that what appears to be the original mix of Snooze 4 Love sneaked in recently via a compilation album! Previously they had only had some remixes (e.g. Dixon's), which is fine, but I prefer the original
