Dischord Goes Digital

With the release of the Faraquet singles compilation, Dischord has announced that it will offer the record in a digital format and expects to launch a full-on digital site soon:

“This album will represent the first Dischord release to be available in the digital MP3 format directly from the Dischord Records website. Our new “digital” website will launch on or before June 30th and will feature digital downloads of every Dischord album from our catalog as well as free album downloads with 12″ vinyl purchases.”

The label joins other indies who have started selling digital releases like Merge and Thrill Jockey.
