I think it's less about marketing (there's still no mainstream cover of hn afaik) and more about natural fashion cycles.
You have absolutely no idea of what you are babbling about.
ah. I guess.
to an extent, we're just talking about too many things at one time, industrial, hn. marketing, audience, ltd run records, record stores and record store days, so I'm not sure what you disagree with? while record store day is huge, and accounts for
two thirds of hits for "record store", I reckon (and yeah it's a guess) very few record stores take much interest in harsh noise. like an obscure footnote for one in every few hundred. next to the power of 'fashion' as generational and beyond our understanding, it's nothing. by which I mean only that things are always in flux, and that
with or without new marketing strategies the audience wasn't going to stay identical forever.
or do you mean tape and vinyl culture? sales on RSD are currently about 500% of a standard weekend, which isn't exactly mind blowing. to pin a "renaissance" solely on that success of that one weekend seems somewhat absurd. there are a tonne of factors, and nostalgia / fashion etc, would be a part of that. there's 120 hits for "vinyl renaissance" and "harsh noise", and all are garbage. what in fact is your point?
do you have any evidence of new marketing techniques breaking hn to 'the masses'?
