What genre does this song fall under? Label suggestions to send it to?

So I'm trying to narrow down labels to send this to, but I don't really know where to start. If I look up progressive house labels all I can find are big room machines like spinnin and revealed, and if I look up indie dance/nu disco labels most of them sound too deep house-y to release this kind of stuff...

Any ideas?

No label. I mean this in the nicest of ways, but that track is awful.

Sounds like quite a bit of the commercial "summer pop" tunes that get released these days on Armada...they probably wouldn't reply though, I've heard their reply rate is absolutely terrible.
I know this is a fairly insulting comment, but that's just how I see it...it's a bit more pleasant than most commercial stuff however, but is a fairly generic track. I do like the melodies you've got going around the 2:30 and 3 minutes in you could make a decent cheerful sounding semi-uplifting trance tune out of that. That's the way I'd go about it if I were you.
I'd just send this one out to commercial labels and smaller labels that are trying to emulate said commercial labels. This is pretty much the most common electronic music on the digital market now besides boring big room shit. You probably won't have too hard a time getting this released I imagine, it's fairly high quality for what you're going for.

If you can't find a label for this I don't know what to say..
