KLUTE IS THE MAN
DOA: Commercial Suicide is definitely one of the more interesting label names out there. Would it be possible for you to divulge a bit of information as far as what it means to you and how you've modeled the label itself around any ethics tied to it, if at all?
Klute: I just wanted a name that stood up against the normal D+B futuristic scientific cliché type of names. I also wanted to depict failure rather than the norm of trying to project success. My whole purpose is to organically release music I like for the sake of people who like music; not hype and lies. Music and culture as a whole has become so obsessed with success that merit is applied to sales figures and perceived market dominance. For me music is a higher form of expression that can’t be judged by success, it’s not a competition - that only gets in the way of the music and actually appreciating it. As much as I love DOA, I sometimes have a laugh at all the experts telling everyone how they think D+B doesn’t know how to market itself. I couldn’t give two f**ks about marketing. |
