The 2006 debut of Stephan Crump's Rosetta (Papillon Sounds) was unusual in a number of ways, not least that it didn't seem to be trying to be unusual.

Innova Recordings
by Kurt Gottschalk
That the record industry is in trouble is hardly, as the 21st Century nears 10% completion, a revelation. Sales are down, labels are closing and industry-wide people are scrabbling for new business plans, new means of distribution and any way to stay afloat.
