But if I hear it I don't need any label anymore... If I would be asked by somebody who didn't hear it, I probably would try to label it according to the musical background of the person who askes... Same is true if you need to market an event. The label only has the function to attract potential listeners. The music will be different than the label anyway... Btw. this specific label says nothing about style, but a lot about the creation process. With this in mind, I think Krispen did the correct thing by using different labels for his fest.

Finally something I can whole heartedly disagree. I think music is an art form (at least what I am intersted in). The essence of art has nothing to do with entertainment at all. Though entertainment and art are not a contradiction, their aim is fundamentally different and is mostly understood wrongly. I think that entertainment is probably one of the strongest tools an artist can use, but it is not art. Its as if you would claim "Music is playing the guitar"...
