I understand what you mean.
But I don't think it's to anyone's benefit, nor do I think it's any fun to the site as a whole if someone just releases their own little album.
I hate to be so difficult, I just think it's silly to let people release albums here that only they've contributed to.
It's not a "Look What I Did" sort of deal, I thought. I figured it'd be more like a, "Let's see what we can get together" sort of album, mixing everyone's tastes and styles together as one.

maybe we could release solo albums but there must be some sort of collaboration with another member (like if i did a collaboration with +81 or OceansAndSilence), or remixes or covers related to another member

I just want to reiterate that this is not a permanent members' music compilation idea either. While we are certainly free to collaborate with each other and have contests and compilations, we should also be free to release solo music at the same time.
If any member of this site does not want to hear an entire album from one person, then they will not be forced to.
Also, I don't think that just because we can release solo albums that everyone is going to do that and ignore all the other events. If that were the case, everyone would have been releasing solo albums for years at this point... most people benefit more from being a part of something and and collaborating as it helps creativity and output, and they realize this. I don't think we'll have to worry about people not participating in our projects.

I like this idea.
I guess in my opinion, it's as long as it's something that more than one member contributed to, it's something I'd like to hear.
I mean, of course there are some albums I'd love to listen to, it's just the fact that I don't want it to be solely solo albums.
Or that people are just there to advertise.

The community should be the focus but I see nothing wrong with solo works. It's still music from within the community and limiting people just restricts the possibilities. I thought we agreed anyway that access to this privilege won't be given to everyone (i.e. n00bz) so I think the spam would be pretty minimal.

Exactly. All submissions are coming to me to be "packaged", if you will, and included in the catalog for download. It's not like any spam is going to make its way through.

I think things will be a little more clear when I make the project thread, which will contain clear-cut rules we've all (the majority of us) agreed upon.
There will be a time-limited poll in the thread to vote on projects and that will be the main focus, but I don't want to restrict our long standing members from being able to release solo LPs and such because I'm pretty sure there are plenty of us who WOULD like to hear them.

maybe some of the compilations could have a "theme"...

for example maybe "make a song about another member" or something like that

idk

i almost forgot you should make a last.fm label page

The MB Records Release Catalog has been revamped!
Next I will be creating the project discussion thread, and then when that's done, this thread will be no more.
