I'm looking for the right label for my music.

Hello!

I'm looking for the right label to release my stuff under.
I thought that you people might have some ideas to support
me with. I really don't know to which record label should I
send my material. And I'd also like to know what do you
think of my tracks, are they worth anything?

Here's a link to my page. There are 4 tracks of
mine.

Greetings:

Taavi [h1rm(at)hot.ee]

Yeah that's almost as good as the last time someone posted a
question like this and I linked them to dynamo.

most labels will put out your music if you give them a good
argument as to why they should release your music so make
sure you choose a label that is understanding

well my point was that you don't choose a label, labels
choose you

...and the only way to get chosen is to get your music out
there. Send demos. Hit up a bunch of labels. Pick like 8-15
labels and make a list of which ones. Send a good quality
copy of your music.

Try and contact certain labels after a bit. Some will only
contact you but i found a number of them that will mail you
at least telling you that they actually listened.

ive been thinking and planning to send out demos.. dont know
any certain labels either..

and i have never come that far either becouse everytime i
finished a demo or some kind of project of music making i
usually end up starting on a new right away and then looking
back on my old one and feeling like it's 5 years old and
sounds like shit..

guess it could be a sign that my music just isnt good
enough..

hey taavi,not a lot of helpful answers i see!
well i hope this link will help you decide or atleast know
of what labels there are.
just browse it down untill you find the idm genre and make
an selection of 15 - 30 labels,cos when sending demos you
gotta let ppl know of you.
also make sure you put out ur best tracks first on the
cd,otherwise you may end up being rejected.

...hope u'll find some label to put ur stuff out!
