CDBaby

CD Baby has interesting and rare music... take a look sometime!

This is basically a self-wishlist post, for my own future reference (gift money has to go somewhere!), and for the interest of anyone following my music tastes (not rank-ordered):

Aquaform--Undercurrent
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/aquaform

Constance Demby--Sanctum Sanctuorum
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/demby

E.S. Posthumus--Unearthed
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/esposthumus

Radium 88--Artificial Life
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/radium882

Radium 88--Only Science Can Tell Us the Truth
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/radium885

Ametrine--Desert Starlight
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/ametrine

Current--Enter the Dream
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/currentsounds1

Current--Communion
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/currentsounds2

Current--Musik
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/currentsounds3

Interesting things that didn't quite make it to the wishlist (yet?):

Circular--Glass Darkly

(This is dubious for use as a gift list, because there is no way to know that two people aren't getting the same thing!)

Yes, I like quite a bit of more mellow, experimental, trip-hoppy, new-agey stuff, even though a fair bit of what you'll hear me play if I'm DJ'ing is more trancey. I can DJ this stuff, but few people want to hear much of it, especially in a DJ'ed context.

The only difficulty I've had with CDBaby is that they take a LONG time to ship.

Good to know; thanks!

I wonder if this is a press-on-demand kind of thing behind the scenes...

That part may vary - they may have some stuff that is press on demand, but they have other stuff that certainly isn't.

I have a couple of friends who sell their CDs through CDBaby and they're selling already-pressed+packaged CDs.

I suspect the long time to ship may also depend on the items. I ordered a bunch of Dave Carter/Tracey Grammer CDs a few months ago, and got them all within a couple of weeks.
