So if you have an artist with releases under the same name on 5-6 labels, it doesn't make it that special. Not to mention if the company spends time and money investing into the development of that artist, through compilations, releases, press and marketing, then to have them go somewhere else with all that, probably doesn't make too much sense!

Some of these artists weren't nobodies to begin with though, and to be honest aside from a few exemptions, I find the label group to be quite blinkered with it's interchangable artists borrowed from each of the other labels on the roster.

Expect a flood of tracks from the label being re-released a thousand times on beatport under "Armada Jan Tracks" "Armada Feb Tracks" "Armada House Vol 26", "A State of Trance November Top 25", "Global DJ Broadcast 15 Jan Mix", etc.

Wish Armada didnt fuck up the mastering for The Blizzard's remix of In & Out of Love either, they couldn't even be bothered to fix it for the re-release on Imagine Remixed.

Originally posted by Progsounds I dont deal in conspiracy theories or rumours, you should know that by now. To me complete artistic control doesnt include not being able to release music under your own name on other labels, and I know of at least two artists on their roster who have that kind of restriction imposed.

i meant in regards to their labels

a label deal doesnt mean an artist deal.
