anyone remember when "True Choice Recordings" tried to release Kraftwerk& #39;s 1 and 2 for #RSD2020
they went so far as to buy the domain http://www.truechoicerecordings.com/ ">https://www.truechoicerecordings.com/">...
and set up some social media
https://www.instagram.com/truechoice_recordings/">https://www.instagram.com/truechoic...

if you were to look at the followers, who that account is following and then see who they have in common it& #39;s a safe bet that one person is who Kraftwerk should be having a word with.
this was a bonus find during investigating something else.
the same person behind True Choice is also behind Disco Matto which seems to be cloning the digital output of a few specialist Italo labels.

this links to a re-issue label that "officially licensed" a lot of things that people pay an arm and a leg for.
They say "officially licensed"
