Heya, my name is Mathieu of Medusa Crush Recordings. I have been running a very small DIY boutique-styled imprint label for the past 4 years now, entering into my 5th. The music is on the heavy side of things from rock to metal and ambient drone, but as time goes on my electronic past may decide to revisit as well.
There are many other small to intermediate labels helping a very thriving international reach of artists, who tour and write as often as anyone. It will be very interesting and welcome to try and engage great quality with a new audience. It seems that a few of the more prominent social and/or media sites of today are governed by ad targeting and sales bots. Record Store Day? You get new stuff too, a lot of reissues with long-lost extras and new exteriors.
While some of that is true, the other ugly shoe to that pair is that they usually give that prominence to those who can pay more - and by extension show you only 'their' wares and bands (who've already had the pre-mp3 era luxuries that new artists can only hope to see. I just want to showcase those quality loud bands who just so happen to criss-cross the continents often enough, that you may even see one or two of them. By extension, if I can hook everyone up with the appropriate links to relevant stuff, I would sure love to sooner have it here than FB, or Twitter, or places that are just prone to limit or bury reach to those interested.
Since this is the basic essence of my label, a music centric site like BC is probably the first place to go check some of this stuff:

I will be getting to the point where I have an OpenBazaar store so that people can get stuff as well as an option. Just happy to be around and alive, cheers!
