Here we go! Major artists begin to employ indie tactics to get their music out to the masses. As predicted in my previous article, well-known artists will begin to release their albums using similar business models to that of RadioHead’s recent “pay-what-you-want” offering. In this case fans can purchase or download for free the Reznor /Williams’ collaboration entitled “Niggy Tardust.”

On the site Williams states, “We need no priests to talk to God. No phone to call her. And when you click the link below, I think it fair that you should know that your purchase will make middlemen much poorer…”

I can’t think of an artist who is as eloquent as Saul Williams. This should be an amazing display of non-genre specific, cutting edge music. I’m hoping for some hard-hitting soundscapes maneuvered by Saul’s one-of-a-kind stylistic prose. Let the games commence. Visit the site and get the music. IV
