I recently bought the Dancethink LP from the band My Dear Disco. If you haven’t heard them yet, I definitely suggest you check out the link where you can preview their songs.
But the reason they deserve your money is because of what they offer on their site: the ability to purchase and download any of their albums, in any of several formats including FLAC(!) and OGG(!!), at whatever price you want to pay. They’re not the first band to offer this, but it’s well executed and so refreshing to see. I chose to pay them generously for .flac which downloaded in a zip archive very quickly.
I’ll note that I’m in no way affiliated with the band or being paid or otherwise compensated for this promotion. I just like their music and I love their approach to its sale and distribution. Hopefully this will someday be the norm instead of the exception.
