Sweet track man. The TA links section has a lot of links to labels. You should go to their sites and read their submission insctructions. Before doing so I would read some literature on safe signing. Such
as the book "everything you need to know about the music buisness" by passman. Just
to keep you safe Good luck!

The track is definitely sweet - nice job mate! While I think it definitely has signing potential, it does sound a bit on a repetitive side. Something is missing, though. The hook is great but a bit too repetitive. I can't put my finger on it but it kind of reminds me of a good story but without a climax. It intrigues, gets your attention but leaves something important out of the punchline. At buildup, around 1:50 mark I think it needs something more massive, maybe a slight deviation from the main theme - something that can be classified as "destroy the dancefloor" piece.

I mean it would get people moving but will not stand above the rest. Also your drumbs seem to be a bit on a "dry" side, while the rest of the track is "spacy". Drums track can probably benefit to be either put slightly on the "wetter" side or moved a bit in the back, not so much "in your face".

Hope it makes sense... Though don't fudge around with the track too much - it definitely has quality feel to it.

BTW, what did you use for drums and all those swooshes/fx?

When you start sending stuff out to labels, make sure you don't just accept the first possible offer you get. It always helps to do some research on the label so you don't get caught in a dodgy deal...

Thats good...

People tend to 'sugar coat' what they say so they dont seem rude... or they will only tell you what they like from your track, but they wont tell you what they dont like : ) thats what i meant
