Direct-to-fan

In the music industry, direct-to-fan is the equivalent of short circuit in food. It's like buying fruits and vegetables directly from the producer.

Like the short food circuit, the direct-to-fan purchase guarantees fairer remuneration for artists and labels (about 75% of a direct-to-fan sale goes to the producer), allowing them to sustain the development of their artistic projects.

The number of intermediaries is reduced to a minimum and transport costs, as well as the associated CO2 emissions, are optimized.

This new direct sales channel also makes it possible to fill cultural deserts and to receive your disc on the day of its official release thanks to pre-orders.

In summary, as soon as the Direct-to-fan tag appears, it means that we are the only intermediary between the artists / labels and yourself.

Description
Neysa May Barnett et Emile Larroche forment UTO. Ils ont quitté Paris avant l’apocalypse de 2020 pour aller vivre dans un bois du Loiret bordé par les champs fertiles de la Beauce qui nourrissent la région parisienne.

Leur cabane-studio se situe près d’un château qui a d’abord hébergé les plaisirs érotiques de Pierre-Antoine Berryer avant de se transformer en labo d’amphétamines pendant la seconde guerre mondiale. C’est là qu’ils composent leur premier album «Touch The Lock» à paraître à la fin de l’été 2022. Un drôle de bled pour un
drôle de duo dont la musique est difficile à cerner. Étrange et mâture, expérimentale aux rythmiques grandement efficaces, leur musique est au carrefour du mainstream et du chelou.

Musique à deux têtes et à deux mains, il y a aussi deux faces sur «Touch The Lock». Si la première partie de l'album est plutôt pop-rentre-dedans (Délaisse, Souvent Parfois, Row Paddle, Heavy Metal) la seconde est plus ambivalente et expérimentale (Steps In The Dark, Take It All, Lock Myself, This New Phase).
