We continue our “Monthly feature” tradition in November. For those unfamiliar with the project, we pick 2 artists and 2 record labels every month and they become our featured Artists/Labels for the entire month, in addition to this post we also highlight them in our blog’s side bar continuously.
November’s picks Mayhem, Downlink, Big Fish Recordings and Daily Earfood are no strangers to the spotlight, they have become popular acts and destinations for great music in their own right. Chances are you have attended one of their shows or listened to one of their tracks but if you are not a fan yet, we hope you join the movement – today!
