With music being<br>such a big opportunity, we are hoping to financially help Occupy London,<br>occupations across the UK and Ireland as well as globally.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Ro<br><br><br>*Occupation Records aims raise ?20K in less that 2 weeks for Occupy label -<br>but needs help!*<br><br> - *Supporters invited to spread the news via on facebook, twitter and<br> spread among supporters!<br> <a href="http://www.sponsume.com/project/occupation-records-99-cent-launch-record-label" target="_blank">http://www.sponsume.com/project/occupation-records-99-cent-launch-record-label</a><br> *<br> - *Artists from Occupy London, OWS, Occupy Los Angeles, and Occupy<br> Baltimore already involved and more invited to get involved - let's make<br> this global!*<br><br>Hi and solidarity from Occupation Records,<br><br>We are the new label *formed by people involved with Occupy London to help<br>spread the message of Occupy and support the Occupy movement around the<br>world*. What we are doing has the potential to throw open doors by<br>providing funding for Occupy projects around the world, getting the message<br>out through worldwide distribution and creating a democratic alternative<br>for an industry that has produced music that has influenced most of us in<br>profound ways.<br><br>*We are in the middle of finalising our first release, Folk the Banks, a<br>folk benefit album with cover artwork by Jamie Reid, the artist behind the<br>Sex Pistols' artwork including God Save the Queen. Featured on the album<br>are some amazing artists, among them Ani DiFranco, Tom Morello, Get Cape.<br>Wear Cape. Fly, Billy Bragg, Chumbawumba and Anais Mitchell. Distribution<br>is lined up. Manufacturing is ready to roll. Promotion is ready. What we<br>need now is you.*<br><br>*The label will be an incredible tool for outreach and funding Occupy<br>projects, but we're going to need some help to get there.<br><br>We're raising start up costs for the label with donations via our<br>crowdfunding site<<a href="http://www.sponsume.com/project/occupation-records-99-cent-launch-record-label" target="_blank">http://www.sponsume.com/project/occupation-records-99-cent-launch-record-label</a>>.<br>Our<br>deadline to raise the money is less than two weeks - we've already raised<br>just over ?3K but we need your help donating and spreading the word to<br>reach our target. There's signed prints of the album artwork by Jamie Reid<br>and copies of the Folk the Banks album in digital, CD and vinyl formats<br>plus more donated as rewards for helping us!*<br>*<br>*<br>*Any questions? *<br>We?ve put together a handy FAQ of some of the questions we?ve heard<br>frequently since coming up with the idea for Occupation Records. You can<br>find it here: <a href="http://occupationrecords.com/faq.php" target="_blank">http://occupationrecords.com/faq.php</a> *<br>*<br>Occupation Records was created when a group of people who had been inspired<br>and involved with Occupy London came together to form the autonomous<br>collective, 45 Revolutions Per Minute, with the aim of facilitating music<br>industry support for the Occupy movement. We want to use our previous<br>experience to create a record label that will help raise awareness of, and<br>funds for, Occupy worldwide. Profits from our releases will support Occupy<br>financially around the world - all profits will be divided between Occupy<br>London (25%), occupations across the UK and Ireland (25%) and a global fund<br>for the Occupy movement and aligned causes. The aim is to help Occupy<br>around the world become more sustainable as the movement grows.<br><br>Financial support will help fund start up costs for Occupation Records as<br>we prepare for the release of the Folk the Banks - and the other four<br>albums currently being lined up! The initial funding we're asking for<br>includes office set up costs, marketing, licensing, manufacturing and<br>worldwide distribution costs.<br><br>*Using music to spread the word of Occupy*<br>We see music as central to the next phase of Occupy as we take the<br>movement's core messages - of economic, social, environmental and<br>democratic justice for all - into communities, schools, universities,<br>across the internet and around the world. Music has the power to inspire<br>and reach people who haven't heard about Occupy yet - and that's what<br>Occupation Records intends to do. Through music we can find new ways to<br>impact change, steer the debates and get people involved. There are many<br>artists who want to find a way to help and thank people involved in Occupy<br>and we can hope we help them do just that.<br><br>*Help us spread the word*<br>Please consider donating but - more importantly - please help spread the<br>message through your listservs, your Occupy twitter and facebook accounts,<br>digg, blogs, and anywhere else to get the word out!<br><br> - Our crowd-funding project on Sponsume -<br> <a href="http://www.sponsume.com/project/occupation-records-99-cent-launch-record-label" target="_blank">http://www.sponsume.com/project/occupation-records-99-cent-launch-record-label</a><br> - Our website - <a href="http://occupationrecords.com/" target="_blank">http://occupationrecords.com/</a><br> - Find us on Facebook - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/occupationrecords" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/occupationrecords</a><br> - And on Twitter - <a href="https://twitter.com/OccuRecords" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/OccuRecords</a><br><br>Solidarity,<br>Occupation Records<br>-------------- next part --------------<br>An HTML attachment was scrubbed...<br>URL: <<a href="https://www.email-lists.org/pipermail/occupysheffield/attachments/20120210/8eeab34a/attachment-0001.html" target="_blank">https://www.email-lists.org/pipermail/occupysheffield/attachments/20120210/8eeab34a/attachment-0001.html</a>><br><br>------------------------------<br><br>Message: 2<br>Date: Sat, 11 Feb 2012 00:11:23 +0000<br>From: Occupy Sheffield <<a href="mailto:info@occupysheffield.org.uk">info@occupysheffield.org.uk</a>><br>To: <a href="mailto:occupysheffieldnews@email-lists.org">occupysheffieldnews@email-lists.org</a>,<br> <a href="mailto:occupysheffield@email-lists.org">occupysheffield@email-lists.org</a><br>Subject: [OccupySheffield] Occupy Sheffield Statement ? 10th February<br> 2012<br>Message-ID: <<a href="mailto:20120211001123.GA23195@riseup.net">20120211001123.GA23195@riseup.net</a>><br>Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1<br><br>Hi<br><br>On Monday 13 February 2012, the occupation on Cathedral<br>Square will be gone, but Occupy Sheffield will continue.<br>The snow has been fun, but the threat of over ?100,000 of<br>High Court costs, and the Cathedral's answer to peaceful,<br>public protest as eviction has made the decision easier.<br><br>Our stand against excessive greed and corruption of our<br>democracy continues. Since November 5th, thousands of<br>people have come to show their support for the camp in<br>many ways. Thank you Sheffield. Occupy is a global<br>movement, manifesting itself in the heart of this city<br>with a occupied space that has been a mission for<br>fairness, a sentry point for justice and an outpost for<br>compassion. But we are more than the sum of our parts;<br>more than tents and sleeping bags. We will continue this<br>process with events, and build on discussions with<br>peaceful direct action.<br><br>To mark the beginning of a new phase for Occupy Sheffield,<br>people are invited to a Moving Forward Parade starting at<br>the camp at 3pm this Saturday 11th February 2012, and<br>finishing with a free Impromptu Cabaret/Poetry/Open Mic<br>event at the Citadel of Hope on Cross Burgess Street (near<br>the Peace Gardens) at 5:30pm.<br><br>Occupy Sheffield will continue to have daily meetings.<br>Public General Assemblies (GA's) are Mon/Wed/Fri at<br>6:30pm, 3pm on Saturdays and are open to all. Meetings<br>will start from the Citadel of Hope on Monday, with plans<br>for meetings back on the streets in the Spring.
