Well, a label will ask you for a WAV file if they like your track, so why send them the WAV immediately.
I personally stay loyal to my label. And the way we communicate is very informal, I finish a track, he says, 'yo dude, I would like to sign', I say 'okay'... and we have a deal.
I don't think it's a bad thing sending tracks to other labels, just to see how they think of it. I mean, c'mon, everybody wants to get signed to Anjunabeats of Armada, so why not give it a shot! |

Then you either master the track yourself and send that, or you hand out the wave file to them for further processing. |

The file will be approximately 500 MB, but hey! only the best is good enough! |

And add your day to day diary (biography) from the day you where born. Of course they need to know who you are before they can sign anything from you! It took me more then I year before I could finally send out my first demo because I didn't have my biography sorted!
Oh, and you need a professional photo shoot for some proper pictures. |
