Our entire mp3 dj set and remix collection was lost when our account with a US-based website host was suspended indefinitely. The company had issues with the amount of resources our site was consuming on a shared-hosting plan, even though it was within the limits of the contractual terms. To cut a long story short, they said that our only choice was to upgrade to a dedicated plan that would cost several hundred dollars per month. We subsequently terminated our account with them and have since signed up with a new organisation that we hope will serve us better. In the coming months we will try to get some of the popular files back online. We apologise for any inconveniance.

We are constantly refining our list of primary distributors - as some of you may have noticed. As the industry adapts to to this new model of music distribution there are going to be a few casualties in this business. That is, not all distributors are going to be able to sell tracks and be profitable when competing with similar businesses - especially those with near identical catalogs. But not only that, there are some who are plain and simply just 'shady'. That is, they have poor communication with label partners, inadequate sales reporting/royalty payments, and downright poor service. We are committed to finding the BEST distributors - for the artists on the ilr roster AND for those who purchase our music.
