Kickstarter. I have a love/hate mentality with the idea. On the one hand, I know that people need funding, and that things such as production are not cheap. At the same time, (and this given that I have several productions in the works myself), I do feel that it can be very unfair to put all the weight upon ones contributors, especially with such a high premium for something as meager as say, a t-shirt. I really do hope to make as good of a product without public funding so people can just get to enjoying the music at hand, but that is just me. I would even rather roll out the product slowly first with digital downloads before a full CD release so at least people have something good to listen to that will give an idea what the final product will be like while waiting for the full release. Just my opinion, but of course others may choose another path to glory.
