Brief Feedback From Bank Holiday Events
sorry totally disagree, 1/2 slots should be the norm, for every great hour slot I've heard plenty of collectors, go out on limb with records that dont deserve dancefloor time, shorter sots should and do make things flow better, and the ego thing which most northern collectors seem to poccess in abundance, seems to respond really well to the competitive nature of short slots.

Buying Blind
country labels can look really similar to indie soul labels, i've been burnt a few times, but finding a piece of black magic can more than make up for it.
