Okay, here's the deal...i'm going to be distributing about 4 mixtapes this year about every 2 months to the streets. These tapes will feature local acts from around town that i'm trying to build street cred with/word of mouth advertising. I will simply be giving them out to whoever I run into, at events and what not. My question to you is that since these tapes are strictly unnofficial releases, how much effort would you guys put into the overall packaging?
We were going to go with a nice digipack case, but though, what the hell, why are we investing all this money into something that will essentially be free and "for the streets." So how far would you guys go quality wise? Jewel case/paper labels/sticker on the case with a tracklisting? I want to come off with a "unnofficial" vibe, if you can catch my drift.
Are paper labels/slimeline jewel cases still something to avoid even in an instance like this? Let me know...
