Dead soul release (DSR)

Term for when an electronic music producer / or musician in general releases a tune on their own digital label that no-one buys, listens too or gives a s*** about just so they can say they have a release. This can be accidental if this only happens with one release. If however they release scores of tunes in this way they are clearly either:

(i) Trying to counterfeit reputation ie. trying to mislead people of their true standing in the game to get bookings / further releases

(ii) Trying to be counterfeit status among their contemporaries

(iii) Tragically deluded.
