Lucky Number Philosophy
Why
Lucky Number? Well the phrase 'Lucky Number' came from one of those numerous discussions
you have with colleagues in the music business about
another of those "buzz" bands. One of those bands where labels get very excited
& where the business winds itself up again, each
label being somewhat more excited by the fact that
each of them are in such fierce competition than they
are by the sounds emanating from the stereo. The money
being discussed between band, manager, lawyer &
multiple companies reaches the point where it is like
pulling large ("lucky")
numbers out of a hat & hoping for the best. The
phrase seemed to fit.
Without trying to get all pretentious we did think
about the name a number of times before we committed
to it & found a few more reasons why it fitted
the way we both thought about our music. Hence,.....
There is a strange but special reason why almost every
one of us has a special feeling about our favourite 'lucky' number, whether it's a reference
to something special that happened to us, or because
somebody special happened to us, or when they were
born, or we were born or whatever. The basic rationale
behind our label is that we hope, in each of our releases
to create a special recording or "number", (as they often introduce
songs as at gigs), which in some indefinable way feels
special, or lucky, for us & for you.
We're not concerned with genre, hence
the music we're talking about is kind of indefinable
in this way. It's just important that it sounds
great, sounds special & feels lucky!
We hope you'll feel the same way about Keith, Sebastien Tellier, Jake Bullit, Seventeen
Evergreen, Gotye & hopefully more as the list
grows...but not too quickly. Now it's up to you to
let us know! |
