Well, I think it helps me a lot whenever I want to search for new music. Labels (the serious, good ones anyway) generally release music of a certain type. With so much being released, it aids in narrowing stuff down. ;) |
Truth be told, I haven't really been following the entire "scene" (sic) in at least a year now. There are certain labels I might check more actively (Distinct'ive etc.) but I just don't have the time to pay that much attention anymore... |

| Ever since I took the big leap into learning how to DJ, I've been paying more attention to labels. If I was just a listener I'd probably wouldn't care that much about them to be honest. :p |

Cecille/Cecille Numbers

| Propulsion. Solid debut album from Nicholas Bennison & some good releases prior to it, keeping trance how it should be, albeit as a lone star usually. |

Meerestief.
Rock solid tunes this year. |

cheers, and +1. They put out some real good stuff this year. Good taste.
I'm also gonna go ahead and say 8bit and Mothership released some really decent music this year. |

Um, that's about it. |
Isn't this the label that Solar Fields releases on? Just remembered because I've been trying to get 'Leaving home' for a sensible price. |

Yeah, must be a tough life trolling TA and policing discogs like a Nazi all day.
In 2008 I liked Nano Recordings, Neurobiotic, Vagalume and Alchemy. |

I bought a bunch of stuff from them last time I went music shopping. :)
As for labels, I couldn't really say myself. I gravitate towards a lot of stuff that's already been mentioned though, mostly through listening to other peoples' mixes and such. Maybe next year I could answer this a little better, I'm still kinda new to most of this. |
