Rough Trade Label in trouble after London riots?

By PhilouMinety, on 2011.08.18

Since 2005, Emiliana's albums are released under Rough Trade label. This label may now be in trouble after the recent sad events in England.

One of Sony's distribution centers in Europe, has been destroyed in Enfield by fire on the night of August 8th, 2011. The building contained many stocks of independent labels inlcuding XL Recordings, 4AD, Beggars, Domino and Rough Trade. This is of course a huge catastrophe. Most or all of the inventory of dozens of independent labels have been destroyed.

"For us it's devastating," Spencer Hickman, manager of London-based retailer Rough Trade East, told the BBC. "It's complete chaos; we don't know how long it's going to take them to get back on their feet. It looks like people have lost everything that was in the warehouse. I'm sure there are labels which aren't insured. I'm sure there will be labels that will go bust."

Support for independent labels was announced in recent days with the creation of a fund to help independents affected by the catastrophe. They will be able to draw upon the fund to help cover the interruption to their business and the cost of getting back onto their feet.
