Interview Community Records

Short interview with Community Records. A Ska and Punk record label from New Orleans.

1. Please tell us more about the philosophy behind the label.

The main idea behind our label is to create a platform for our friends and for ourselves to release music we like. We want to do this in a way that breaks down as many barriers as possible between the artists and the listeners. The best way we have found to do this is by giving the majority of our music away for free. We do vinyl and CDs and band merch for mailorder, but we would rather people be able to hear our music than feel pressured into or obligated to pay for it.

The other thing we are trying to push with our label is the genres of ska and punk. We are currently doing a lot of ska-core. I hope/ think that we will do much more of that in the future. I also want to do more traditional ska and reggae, straight punk, experimental music, or any thing else that has heart that we feel we can stand behind.

Red Head Man Interview

what are your next projects?
     
I don’t want to speak about projects which are not really sure. Several weeks/months ago, I told you about bands who don’t send me any news since then.
So, I think there will be several 7” but I can’t say exactly how many and, except Magic Lord, I don’t really know the bands
