You have to get them!

"Prélude à la ruine" and "Si Partie I" are simply amazing in my opinion! can't wait to listen to the sequel "Si Partie II"


Nemo: Just by curiousity. Have you listened to our stuff? If so..what did you think about it?

Thanks guys !

@ Inferno : I just listened to sound samples on your pages, and what I heard sounds good to my ears :) The production seems to be very clear and powerful, and musicians seem to be really good. Your singer just sings like Gabriel, doesn't he ? I'm gonna get your latest album :) What is the better way ?

Thanks!

Actually, the way we recorded the vocals made in sort that his voice sounds like Gabriel. He has a similar tone of voice naturaly so that doesn't help either but there is no intention of being of genesis wannabe band like all those clone around there!!!

The better way to get our album? Musea record is our distribution in France so there should be a couple of retailer with our album but I heard that they kind of sell them ridicously at a high price so you may want to check on Amazon or our website.

@ Inferno : I found your latest at 17.9 euros (musea) and 17.5 euros (amazon) :)

About Laser'sedge, here is the new reply from Ken :

Problems...limited interest in French vocal music.  We stock Manigance and sell small quantities.  Price - if I recall you quoted me a very high price.  Finally how would I pay you?

I understand this point of view, and fortunately we got 3 other USA retailers.

JP-e-mailed Ken and he replied back with his side of the story and recounted your latest conversation.  I understand you are both trying to make money on your endeavors and it is hard to say who is right and who is wrong-probably neither of you.  He obviously can't carry everything from everybody.  I'll look for your stuff elsewhere.  Good Luck with the new album

I got no anger at all against Ken or anybody. He does his work, and his conditions are not ok for us so we won't work together. No problem with it. However, retailers have to understand two things : bands like us can't sell their records at low prices as bigger labels, and dollar is lower than Euro... We still got the freedom to refuse selling our products under their cost, and that's a good thing ! Other US retailers are ok with that :)
Thanks

I can't believe I got dragged into this thread. Somehow I'm getting painted as a villian here and I find myself in a position where, for some reason, I need to explain what should be a private business matter in a public forum. OK here goes!

Last year I picked up a buzz on Nemo. I contacted JP and he graciously sent me a number of promos to check out. I felt given the heavy edge of the music it was trying to appeal to both a prog rock and prog metal audience. Based on my history selling the French prog metal band Manigance (a superb band in the Vanden Plas mold but with French vocals) I felt there was a limited audience. Further JP quoted me a very high price (remember the dollar is weak). I decided to pass.

Forward to yesterday...I was contacted again by JP, apparently motivated by this thread and comments by John Mattern. I outlined my concerns to JP. I agreed to stock the CDs if we could come to a meeting of the minds on price and terms. I told him how much I wanted to pay based on the price I felt comfortable retailing the CDs at. JP wasn't thrilled but he agreed. His firm terms were the CDs had to be prepaid for. I don't prepay. I've been in business for 19 years with terms from bands, labels and distributors all over the world. I offered to pay upon receipt of goods - not uncommon.   JP said this was unacceptable. I wasn't insulted and I don't think he was either - we simply didn't have a meeting of the minds. No bad guys here - the deal just didn't work out for us. I wish JP and Nemo all the best. I'm sure there are many places that the CD can be sourced from - Greg Walker, Kinesis, etc. If JP changes his mind I'll be happy to stock Nemo.

Regards,
Ken Golden

I'm glad to read you there Ken. Yes, maybe we'll work together, who knows ? Wink
And of course there are no problems for me, the most important thing is people to find our cds somewhere.
I'll explain you in private why we do have hard conditions Wink

Ken-if you come back and read this, I certainly hope you don't feel that anyone has said anything bad about you on this thread.   I don't think that is the case.  I simply inquired of JP initially why you didn't carry them and it kind of ballooned to this stage.  As you are aware, people who listen to prog can be quite passionate and sometimes don't understand that at the end of the day, the music is all great and good, but the bills need to be paid.  You have made a business decision and I respect that and don't want anyone to look unfavorably on your business.  If you think that is the case, my apologies.

You will forgive me if I wait for your album to reach the US before buying it (either Big Balloon, Greg Walker or Laser's Edge will be fine).
Anyway, I find Nemo to e an excllent band with all four albums of about the same quality with obvious improvements as you release more, but I love all of them.
I keep recommending you to people I konw and in this forum as well, as do others here, so you will find supporters here.

JP, think you have a bad link for Laser's Edge here in the states.  They are www.lasercd.com.
