#SaltNPepa have set up a #BandCamp where they have set up the re-recorded versions of all their hits, and you can buy the MP3s or a beautiful splattered limited edition vinyl of their earlier songs.
If you are a fan, and can send them the support, I need you to go and buy their formats of music before Bandcamp takes it down.

Reading: Kate Bush and Damon Albarn among 1,000 artists on silent AI protest album | Artificial intelligence (AI) | The Guardian
"The recordings of dormant music studios and performance spaces, called Is This What We Want?, are being released as leading cultural figures warn livelihoods are under threat from proposed changes to copyright law.

I wonder what some of the long-term effects of this type of consolidation in music rights might be?
I had a paranoid moment when I heard Duran Duran's "A View to a Kill" on Spotify recently, thinking "have they actually modified the arrangement, and cleaned up the synth stacks, presenting it as the original???" Turns out it was the first time I heard that tune on my high-end headphones. Phew.
