| I was wondering if anyone had any insight of how to get tracks signed besides knowing the right people. Thanks. |

send mp3 links/cdrs to labels
they tell u yes/no/dont bother replying
if yes, they will ask for a master cdr copy, u sign contract, get test pressing when release time comes round, then a full release vinyl
not much too it really, may get royalties or advance if really good

| yeah, don't share your tracks for free (like me)... that's why a lot of labels reject me :) |

I dunno if your tracks have to be REAL good. Sadly enough, getting to know the right people makes all the difference these days...
If you do want to get your tracks noticed, send them out to a few fine djs for example. Or start dj'ing yourself :) |

not necessarily true, it's generally an excuse to not sign a track.
for example haak - frenzy/pulling strings, vazim zhukov, etc.

| yeah big labels will sign it regardless, but smaller labels can't compete with the sharing. |

| why rely on someone else to sign you... sign yourself |
