Oh the joys!!
1 Gav,
The tracks are very good and you clearly have talent. It is not however
the style of track we are currently putting out on *****. If you have
not had anything released yet then my advice is to approach labels that
sound the same as your output. In your case labels such as Skam, defocus
or even fat cat spring to mind. It is much easier to get released once
you get something out and get a bit more exposure, contacts etc. Hope
this helps, it's not easy getting stuff released even if you're a good
producer. Just persevere.
All the best
2 Hi Gav
Afraid it ain't the style of music I'm working with! but very nice
especially name your children get the right sort of vocalist with that style
and you'll be on to a winner! Best of luck mate.
Regards Jim
Bollocks I say. :-)

You could be on my label. All you have to do is wait about another 10-15 years.

thankyou. You have instilled never-before-seen confidence in me. This is a debt that hopefully, one day I can repay you.
Yes, you are right. I email about 50 labels so I'm bracing myself for 50 rejections at least. Some of them will probably tell me to fuck off twice. In a nice manner of course. :-)

naw, the bigger they are, the harsher they fall, and the more patronising they become I think. I'm aiming for mere tadpoles in the ocean of labels. Hopefully I can inject one of them with my musical-lovetruncheon and a fully fledged frog of music will appear. :)

He he, I got a rejection from them... My music was not the direction they were looking to move in with their next release :)
In a way, it's good getting rejections. It at least shows people are listening to demos (rather than them just sitting in a pile). Especially when they give advice or put you onto a label that might be interested in you.

no, I haven't started yet. I've sent a few cd-r's to interested people and to a couple of internet-radio-stations.
up till now I've sent one demo to Colony, of Crunch fame. which Mike rejected politely. :)
I'm looking into releasing something on a more 'weird' electronic label, not so much oriented at the "IDM"-market, more a general electronic music market, if there is such a thing.
I do want to send out more demo's, but I really have to find the time to basically de- and then reconstruct each and every track.

We sent our demo to Fat Wreck Chords many years ago and we knew that we are going to be rejected, but it was too cool to receive letter with Fat Mike's signature .,

why do you want to de/re-construct your tracks? Are you not happy with them?
And where is your music anyway? I've always been intrigued to hear it.
Here's a nice link to a list of labels. I am presently ploughing through them all.

some of the tracks I'd like to send are a few years old and are not mixed very well.
so I'd have to find all the files, load them up again, etc.
some of my music can be found here
and for your enjoyment, a nice website with even MORE labels..

At least they took the time to listen and respond. Redardless of whether they replied with standard letters or not. Obviously music styles don't click with everyone, you just have to keep trying.

He he, I'm actually working on a battle wax record at the moment. Mr. Brown will be buying a final scratch in the near future as an architects office has hired him and he'll be flush. I plan to put it together on the PC and test extensively on that (fine tuning it as neccessary) and then, if it's good enough, maybe have it pressed up. I'm just making beat juggling kits and synth stabs etc. for it at the minute. Plus, I need to get high quality "virgin" versions of the traditional, "Aaaah", "Fresh", "Scratch", etc. samples.

I.. can't stop reading: "My first ever label erection"
same as I thought "Earthleakage" was called "earthakleage" (which isn't a word, but it made more sense), and "ecnadniarb," i thought was "ecnadnibarb" (which makes it Brabindance backwards).
