Ladies and Gentlemen — I’ma level with you:

About a month ago we put RECollection on pre-sale.  It’s going really great!  And, soon (Sept 20) RECollection will be available everywhere — amazon, retail stores internationally, etc.  It’s awesome that the art that we make at hitRECord will be available in real-live stores standing shoulder-to-shoulder with other great books, DVDs, CDs and all sorts of other cultural ephemera! :oD  But, because of the way distribution works, hitRECord earns less when bought through these channels.

Now we all know I didn’t start hitRECord to make money.  Indeed, if that were the goal the story would probably be a bit different.  BUT — it does cost money to do the things we do.  And one of the main reasons RECollection turned out to be such a wonderful feast for the senses (at such a reasonable price to the consumer :o) ) is because we produced it (and took on the financial risk) ourselves.  

RECollection will break even at 3,000 units sold.  We’re pretty close!  It’ll be a great achievement for me and everyone at hitRECord to have the RECollection project ‘go into the black’ before our release date.  Being able to split profits with the contributing artists from day one would be awesome!

And now, the hard sell:

As you may-or-may-not know, we’re including a FREE copy of our (RED) vinyl EP ‘Nothing Big’ to the first 3,000 orders.  The ‘Nothing Big’ EP will never be produced again.  Ever!  So, if you buy RECollection now not only will you be receiving our wonderful RECollection anthology (DVD, CD, Book) including the work 471 artists — you’ll own a piece of (RED) recorded history.

We’ve got less than two weeks to go.  Pre-order RECollection here!

Thanks again,

<3
