Colins comments are fair, but if you are having to much trouble trying to get signed then I'd just release the music yourself on CDR or MP3. Man, talk about 999% of music being sh*t, 999% of record labels have ego inflation and I know from being in this game a while that some people have pride and won't admit that demos are sometimes BETTER than releases on their labels because their motivation behind their releases has not been to release quality music but to groom their DJ friends and producers

When it comes to considering wether tracks are cutting edge, or the latest hottest sound.. I say who cares!! Good music stands the test of time. I still like Crystal Methods first album much more than their newer ones, it does not sound dated, it just sounds good. Now when it comes to procuction value (i.e. audio engineering technology), sometimes newer is better, but only to a certain extent.
I wore that CM tape out a long time ago, but I re-downloaded recently and it still blows my socks off!! I find today that there are millions of generic copies of the latest greatest sound, but the creative originality gets a bit dilluted. Maybe thats because people want to stick with whats familiar to audiences and have a safe sell.
But music just gets boring that way, the TWO big label conglomerates think this way, they stick to a safe "it works" formula and therefore we have horrible generic boy/girl-band pop.

right, I guess "cutting edge" is not a good description, of course people/listeners are into "cutting edge" music. I guess what I was getting at is that "new" and "current" does not always mean better. I fall into this myself when picking up tracks for DJing, not truly going with music that I really really like, but that I "sorta" like and is the latest sound. A lot of the dance/club genres being produced for the DJ market sounds cool, but not ground breakingly creative or inspired.
i.e. original and moving in a new creative direction as apposed to mimiking the sounds and feel of the latest dance sound. Something to keep in mind when trying to stand out in that A & R reps mile high pile of CDR's??

well... it also still goes back to:
The trick is knowing when the labels are just full of themselves and when you are
and the fact that...
Good music doesn't always sell... even if it is always going to be considered good music

only thing is many people don't pay any attention to the label of the music they play. and even still, if you buy online or use p2p, most don't look at the label, they look at the artist. and most mp3's don't come tagged with the labels name in it.
With
Discogs
it's not really an issue. Just search for the tracks you like and look up the labels their on.

there already is one. I forgot the name. It's actually a 3rd party vendor that is working with them. You can sell music on your myspace page AND use the same system on a separate site as well.

Is there any restrictions? for example i heard that to sell tracks on itunes you need to be a label with something like 28 releases. Any cost involved?

why would you want to sign your music??
do you want it for money and fame?
do you just want to be heard en receive some pats on the back?
do you want to share your faith?
these are questions you need to ask yourself when searching for a label. many labels out there are in it for the money (otherwise you wouldn't start a bussiness like that) and care less about you until you start selling. there are some labels out there only looking for quality stuff caring less about sales (yet they need to sell enough to exist). there are quite some labels you really do not want to be a part of. and the right label for you might not be the right label for anyone else.
interesting to read all the response here. thank you colin (and dave)! let's build!
