…you’ve put up a charity release? That’s incredibly low.

It’s very cheap and you get 34 tracks and if you get it from their Bandcamp then 100% of the proceedings go to the Deutsches Red Cross. If you want this, please pay for it!

words really can’t express how disappointed i am. damn, this is a charity album …

i wouldn’t have known about this release if not for this post. now i just went ahead and bought myself a copy. thanks nodata!

thanks for the album. yesterday i catch it in last.fm and when i click on the link, the album was not available in the itunes store for chile.

enjoy the music, the link to make a direct donation to red cross works worldwide.

download this link, and burn in the fires of hell!!!! not really…

From stricken area in Japan.
Reading it aroused mixed feelings in me.

Reporting each link for copyright. At least have SOME decency.

Remove this link. t’s a shamme to find this here.

yeah, and by buying the record you support the artist

downloading records for free never stopped me from buying them later when they were released and going to gigs. it’s same here, i’ll buy it if it’s any good and if it’s rubbish i’ll just find other way to donate and help japanese people.

If the links do get removed I’d really like this post to stay up though, because as some people have said this has raised awareness of the compilation for those that may not have known otherwise. For any other techno, house and disco fans who wish to donate and get something in return there are a couple of some similar efforts out there.

Soul Aid offers free downloads of their tracks if you don’t wish to donate, but also has a very quick and easy link for donations to go with it as well. You can put forward as much or as little as you want and you’re getting a solid set of tracks in return for the favour http://soulaid.org/

Turbo Recordings are offering a year-long subscription to their label where you receive all of their releases digitally as they come out, which over the year is a huge saving. Until 1st May, 100% of this will go to the Japan effort. They’ve already raised LOADS from this http://shop-turbo.com/

As people have said, there’s nothing stopping you from donating directly to the Red Cross. But you’d be more likely to pay £30 for a Turbo subscription than £30 simply out of charity. You may end up giving more than you normally would because you feel you’re receiving something in return. That’s why things like this exist and should be supported.

If anyone has any other links to similar initiatives, please post them!

the release of this compilation is meant to help people.. think about it..

jojo :
SO WHAT???
if you want to help people in japan, just go and donate the money

Donating are nice – that is what the artist is doing. Hoping to help by encouraging people to donate by donating their work. What you did – Proved you don’t care about the music or the artist – you just want more hits. And besides it’s tacky.

2S

you’re right, i could just visit their bandcamp page to check the music out. the problem is i didn’t even know about this release until today when i found it on nodata.

i think you are trying to make a problem out of nothing. nodata’s main point is to help people find new music and once you’ve found it it’s really up to you weather to pay for it and support the artist\make a donation or just steal it and listen to it for free.

this is bullshit.

Thanks for this. I love free stuff!!!!!!!!

Free advertisement. Now people know this is out to purchase. Now go buy it. I just did.

I heart the Jockey of Thrill’s and Bettina Richards!

Would someone just give their impressions of the music on the album?

You guys all download music for off here, but get all self-righteous with this all of the sudden? You either pay for your music or you don’t. There’s lots of albums on here that you could pay for, and it would go directly to the artist. But instead you download it for free right? Well that musician might be need the money as well, but I don’t see these types of comments on all the links. So please get off your high horse and stop acting like you’re better than everybody else on here.

how about a happy compromise by providing a link to the bandcamp version as well? that way people can still be made aware of it and have the option to download/donate from the original source.

»Ocean of Tears« Another great compilation from russian instrumental Jazz-hip-hop producers to the recent tragic events which are known by everyone and to which there is a place in everyone’s heart. Get it here for free download:

i wont download this, but damn, everyone stop trying to be morally correct. that is the saddest thing.
downloading any album is morally incorrect, idiots.

nodata.tv is about the spread of music and artist awareness. I use this site solely as a way to gain access to new bands and buy there merch if they pass my test of worth.
nodata.tv is not about donations, if you’re going to donate to japan than do it but this link being up will not stop anyone that was going to originally buy it.
nodata.tv is not the sole gateway to music on the internet, him having this link up is just a sign that it is available on the internet for free.

U guys didn’t read the qupte at the top of the page? This is the end of record labels and paying for music. If any of u “moral” ppl wanted to help Japan, u would’ve donated directly to the red cross off the bat when the earthquake happened.

@ these self-righteous retards. i’m gonna listen the shit out of this here album and i’m not finna give a single red cent to japan, just to fuck all of you hypersensitive, hypocritical little bitches.

Ugh. You know what self-righteous is? It’s facelessly, indiscriminately shamelessly spreading the content of a charity project and telling me you’re ‘helping’.

Hipsters, how long can you continue to believe your own bullshit?
