...Since it's going to be on deeplife records, will they do mastering on it after I submit it? ....

As far as mastering I don't know what deeplife does.  Most labels are responsible for there mastering but there are some labels that say submit a mastered file.  Most good labels watch the final process of there sound quality, and I would say that good artists also do too. 

You send in master songs as usual, but I think Andy does mastering too from time to time if needed.

it seems like the more channels you have per song the harder it is to do the mixing. my creator remix uses 13 channels, and it needs a lot of mixing and mastering work.

however, i really can't justify spending as much as it would cost to do that stuff on a song that i will not make a single dollar from -- so i'm going to have to opt out of hiring somebody to do it for me.

but when i have a piece of work that i'm serious about i'll keep you in mind.

 Its cool stephen.  Brief note, that you have to spend money long before you make it in EDM.  I would think opposite as you are now.  Past experience reminds me that you can't undo material you put out.  If you are going to put something out, make it the best you can, you shouldn't skimp on the final stages.  Even if you don't use me, I would consider using a mastering engineer, especially in the beginning of your "career".  Having an extra ear on your project can make a world of difference.  However, 85% will come from your mix and source material, so get that going as best you can.  My experience has been that starting to use ME's and getting serious about production has helped me immensely in the last year.  I've even paid money to go sit in on studio sessions to learn.  Get all the knwoledge you can, best regards on your remix.

If you submit material do not use heavy compression or limit the master bus.

Does that mean that you dont want me to use any compression at all?
I mean, I don't compress my master, just my fx channels in fruityloops.

Just not the master channel, unless you have a the know how on light settings.  Go ahead and do what you would normally do to your mix, drums etc.
