Where are you based?

Have you got a legally binding contract?

What avenues of promotion do you use?

Is there any way you'd release physically in the future if a track sold well enough and would you be happy to include a clause that says so in the contract?

Sorry to grill.

[dekoy records]

Where are you based?

Newcastle Upon Tyne/London, UK

Have you got a legally binding contract?

Yes

What avenues of promotion do you use?

Radio play, Mailing lists, Social networking and advertisements on the actual stores if necessary. We are also looking into getting some official advertising elsewhere on the internet but nothing confirmed yet.

Is there any way you'd release physically in the future if a track sold well enough and would you be happy to include a clause that says so in the contract?

Yes. We are only a digital label at the moment but we aim to move onto vinyl as well in the future. As mentioned though we would have to have confidence that the artist would be good enough to sell hundreds of copies of vinyl.

In that case I'll send some tracks to you. Nice to see a decent label owner who knows what they're talking about.

It's a breathe of fresh air.

Cheers for answering.

Which mastering house do you use? What's the budget for artwork/ do you have your own designer? Contractually do you take full ownership of copyrights or are the tracks licensed to you?

Just curious.

Check your inbox ive messaged you some details about mastering (simply because i dont feel comfortable about advertising mastering houses on an open forum). Yes we have our own designer for artwork. And we don't take full ownership we just get them licensed to ourselves for release.

Thanks again to everyone who has sent tracks, bare with us there are hundreds to go through!

You sound like a decent set of guys, I sent accross a couple of tunes on the soundcloud. Hope the fact that my soundcloud name, email address, forum name and producer name are all totally different doesn't confuse you :s

[dekoy records]

Cheeky little bump

[deadly_habit]

Nearly half way through the tracks now and we've found some we want to sign, some talented producers on DSF! (will be messaging people soon)

We've been getting loads of tracks through to that address with no problems
Did you get a bounceback?

[paravrais]

Er, not particularly happy with the tunes I sent over now, think I was in a bit of a rush at the time, don't wanna spam you but do you mind if I send a couple of newer tracks/better mixed down versions??

Of course spam us all you want the more tracks the better.
