Here&#8217;s what they have to say:<\/p>\n<p><i>We were greatly saddened by the untimely passing of Sub Pop&#8217;s Andy Kotowicz. Yet, I think I can speak for all of us when we say we&#8217;re also inspired by the heroism of Seattle business owner Kenny Johnson, who raced to the scene to save Andy&#8217;s young daughter, and made a valiant effort to save Andy as well. While we only knew Andy for a brief moment, we can say without hesitation that the gang at Sub Pop are some of the most down-to-earth, awesome people to work with &#8211; all the more remarkable when considering the size and influence of the label. <\/p>\n<p>After five compilations showcasing some of our favorite discoveries (as well as friends&#8217; musical endeavors) and ripping on our blog friends a bit with love and reverence, the Crash Avenue Comp Series has quickly become an exciting monthly program, and as such, it seems only right that we use what we&#8217;ve built here to help Andy&#8217;s family. Starting with our December release, you can download the full compilation with a Radiohead name-your-own-price structure, with all proceeds going to the Andy Kotowicz Family Foundation. You can find out more <a href=\"http:\/\/www.subpop.com\/andy\" target=\"blank\">here<\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>You can download the comp <a href=\"http:\/\/crashavenue.bandcamp.com\/album\/crash-avenue-comp-series-i-guess-im-bloating\" target=\"blank\">here<\/a>.
