Has anyone here heard of this label? or know anything about them? had any experiences with them?
I'm asking this as I've started sending out some demo's to a few labels, and the owner of this label has recently got back in touch with me about my tracks. He has sent me a digital contract to sign, but wants me to choose what tracks to release? surely thats the labels choice right?
Next, after reading through the contract, it states that the artist recieves 40% of net sales of the tracks? Surely thats abismally low right? And the artist must also submit a track for free download for "Promotional purposes"?
Now, on top of that, it also states that it is the artists responsibility for any mastering of the tracks, and as a good friend of mine (and label owner himself) said, if the artist has to pay out for mastering, why are they only recieving 40% of sales? surely it's the labels responsibility to master the tracks ready for release?
But all that being said, they do look like they have a good following, and are certainly getting playtime on SC.
So, what are everyones thoughts on this, before I make a decision?
