If Sound as Language told me they were releasing a new record I could probably dismiss it as some experimental European dance dj stuff based on the label name alone 
Or summat. Your reasons for SAL are fair enough but I think it would be limiting - peoples perceptions of pretension.
Raskol is nice, easy to remember & abstract enough to let you release anything in the future I think.
Change your logo/colours to make it seem more "serious" if you want to go that way but SAL is carrying a message that, as I said, could restrict you I think. |

Speaking of logos, actually, Tony...

Oh? Are you near enough to getting a record together now that it's worth making moves on a logo?

I am indeed. Aiming for February (and that is actually vaguely realistic). Total site overhaul is also in the works, thanks to some fabbo new PHP system from Toe.

Righty-ho.
My laptop's away to Apple for repairs. Once I get it back, I'll get something done for you... so sometime before the end of December, if all goes to plan.

That would be super excellent, and about ideal timing for the revamped RR.com, I think. Much gratitude.

Why not call it "We can put any name we want in here, since the record downloading buying public care only about the bands and the music. The name of the company makes no damn difference" records. | |

I'm with the majority here. Raskol is the better name, I think.

I'll post all about it properly when RR.com v2 is ready to rock.

You may only hate raskol as you are around it 24/7 but it is not abad name considering their are far worse out there.
Sound As Language has me thinking of BBC tapes for the blind/crippled/horny folks on the 60's made by people with beards.
Explains the Hot water Music reference then | |

I think famous is probably stretching it a bit.
