Here's a scenario for you. You've just spent days, weeks, possibly even months creating a new release. It's been sent to a record label, and now it's finally available for people to buy. Great. Except you've discovered that it's also up on the pirates websites, meaning that people can just…
There are some strange things going on at the moment on the official Facebook page of Todd Terry. A hacker seems to have come along and concluded that this (page) will be mine. Instead of the usual fare about his latest releases, shows or whatever else happens in a day…
I thought it was time to let you all know a few things that are coming up with this blog. Since I made the move in January to putting all my blog content here, I think it's gone quite well. My readership has held up - infact, it's actually gone…
