Right, & the "creative input" bit is when they make you sound as much like the niche as possible.
Oh, it's Italy. Well, it's bad here in the U.S. too. It's usually the subsiduaries of large companies that like to fucking charge you for your dream. They never promote you properly, and they always steal your money. Shit, they probably write you off somehow on their taxes later and exaggerate what they lost on you---probably the crux of the biscuit of the whole scam. PolyGram here in the U.S. (now part of Universal Music Group), and Polydor (the Universal subsid in the UK) are especially notorious dream-thieves. Sonic Youth really should have nothing to do with them, but I guess Interscope/Geffen was absorbed or some shit.
In Italy, all you get is the subsiduaries really. Not entirely, but those are always the ones supposedly "giving you opportunities."
