best way to get a tune signed??

I've got a tune that is about ready to be signed and I've been trying to figure out the best way to get it signed. My track is a melodic/driving track with some acoustic instruments to it. A lot of trance labels fit the style I have, although perhaps the acoustic bit may make it stand out.

So I've got a list of roughly 10 labels that work out, all in Europe. A bit apprehensive about submitting to any of them. All of them have music that fits my style but I don't feel partial to any of them. The bigger labels seem too corporate. The smaller ones seem too personal, and even the smaller ones only list artists that I would consider "big", and so it doesn't feel right being a newbie producer submitting to them.

Any advice?

why not just go through Snowcap and promote your self. taking into considerations that u have right's of have rights to all the samples, etc. Then thats 100% profit and don't have to worry about getting screwed also don't hesitate to free share, of course just to get the ball rolling. I know some people that are dealing with beatport right now and it's a major pain in the ass as E.d.m. is in a real transition right now. I hope this helps.
