With all the hoopla surrounding the recent decision to increase royalties fees for Internet radio, San Diego's Truckee Brothers are making their single, "Mayday" available May 8th, royalty free and exclusively online because as they put it, "it is illegal to repeatedly use the term "mayday" on terrestrial radio." HA! Cool.
Sure, they are trying to bring attention to their new website and the release of their second CD, Double Happiness coming out the same day on Populuxe, but I've got to give these guys credit - though they are capitalizing on a really bad situation (Yeah, the RIAA really needs more money. I'll believe that when the artists make more than they do.), at the same time they're doing something good.
Go out and buy their CD, will ya? Or since you'll be sitting at your computer anyway, buy it online.
