The trickle down of lower music sales is effecting distributors and today North Carolina based Redeye let at least four staffers let go as part of a move that combines the Strategic Marketing Department and the traditional Marketing Department into a single sales and marketing unit.

In an email sent to labels by Redeye general manager Steve Dixon, he said that as of today staffers Brian Pearl, Craig Powell, Rich Minter and Leyla Cruz would no longer be with the company. Josh Wittman will head the smaller combined team who are now responsible for physical distribution co-op marketing, digital distribution and online marketing, direct to consumer marketing, licensing and export marketing.
