Hi everyone

The BLT will be starting in earnest very shortly. Below are the label groupings for the first round. I've grouped the labels into comparitive size/standing to ensure fairness. Match-ups will be posted in this thread, so keep an eye on imminent postings. Have fun - any questions just holler:

1. Motown - Stax - Blue Note - XL
2. Rough Trade - 4AD - Matador - Factory
3. Warp - Sub Pop - Drag City - Nuclear Blast
4. Bella Union - Merge - Sarah - Cash Money
5. Greensleeves - Lookout! - Thrill Jockey - Stones Throw
6. Anticon - Kranky - Planet Mu - Kill Rock Stars
7. Saravah - Triangle Records - Modular Recordings - Ghostly International
8. Mediaskare - PC Music - Moonlee - Night Slugs

Given I'll be announcing dates before the week's out, and to give people time to put their teams together... Possibly two weeks away at the most.

Cool. Looking forward to it. Never heard of Nuclear Blast, but the other two are certainly heavy hitters.

Greensleeves is new to me, and Thrill Jockey's put out a couple really cool releases, but damn it'll be hard to make any team I think is worthy of beating Stones Throw. Didn't realize how much they've done on top of Madvillain til now. *gulps*
