Sonopress and EUK Direct have agreed a UK distribution deal that allows Music CDs to be supplied made ‘on demand’ by Sonopress rather than storing ‘physical stock’ in it’s warehouse. The new distribution model allows EUK to continue to distribute deep catalogue titles, re-introduce deleted lines and to now make available high risk new releases. The first major act to take advantage of the new system is Fairport Convention who have licensed their albums to Mood Music. Their titles are now available to all on-line retailers using EUK Direct to fulfill orders in the UK. For more information contact philiparrowsmith@thedisckiosk.com
