December 2019

[edit]

As I identified in my comments:

- the band's record label, Duophonic Records, whilst it might be a notable label, using their website as a reference is using a primary source - which is not acceptable. You need to find alternative supporting references confirming their releases on the label (avoid using music retail/download websites, as they aren't considered independent). From the references I have searched their album, DYMAXION×4+3=39:21, was released in the US by Roomtone Records and in the UK, under licence, by Duophonic. Noting that there has only been one album that the band has released.
- Discogs is not an acceptable or reliable source, as it is primarily user-generated.
- WFMU is a community based radio station based in New Jersey. There is no evidence that they have "been placed in rotation nationally by a major radio network", only locally.
- The Tiny Mix Tapes and Exclaim! references are good - needs however to demonstrate 'significant coverage', so a bit more than a single album review would help.

It is probably borderline at the moment, so with a few more good reliable secondary sources it should tip the balance for me. Dan arndt (talk) 01:44, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
