Musical collectives allow for flexibility in their rosters. As such, most of the members are free to rotate in and out of the line-up. TYPES There are two slightly different types of musical collectives. Although both types revolve around collaboration between member artists, the main difference is in how the music is credited. In one type, the collective is centred around a Record Label which releases music by its member bands. Although musicians in the collective collaborate with each other, the resulting albums are always credited to a specific band or artist within the collective, rather than to the collective itself. For example, artists associated with the Elephant 6 record label regularly contributed to each other's albums, and sometimes launched one-off side projects featuring varying combinations of musicians from its member bands — however, Elephant 6 itself was the ''label'', and was never credited as the ''band name'' on an associated album. In the other type, the collective itself functions as a band, releasing both albums by its individual member artists and albums credited directly to the collective as an entity in its own right. Like the label type, however, individual artists' albums still commonly feature collaborations with other members of the collective. NOTABLE COLLECTIVES
