As a label, i like to see what the label is all about, what kind of sound they are after, what kind of artist, their aim's and goal's, and most importantly, are they going to represent their artist. All this should be given freely available to any one who would like to know. Additionally, there seems to be no list of distributor? iTunes, beatpotal ect... By you saying "amibent" music is very vague, it could mean anything...?
When i read this thread, there was not clear indication on those elements... as well for the website. Hence, the request for further information. There was not aim to try undermine your knowledge of this business, i simply asked to find out more. Other information such as, cut, PR's (if any) ect ect should be given after you are happy to sign that artist.
Normally, many label threads found on DSF have a sentence or paragraph stating their intentions. It has not became a common norm here. So, i can't see by me asking for further information to impose any problem or any sort to you.
Do you see where am coming from now?
BTW, Lethargik i don't seem how you were helping in any form, you just tried to aggravate it.
Don't worry paravrais, no beef was caused
However, i think i can trust Basic A judgement when he say's your a legit labelTrustworthy DSF member, with good knowledge.
However i find it pretty absurd that you would demand a companies business model over a forum when he hasn't even said he may like to sign your tunes.... what honestly gives you the right to do that? You would never dream of asking for details about who they're gonna promote tunes to, what clients they have to a label like hotflush, hyperdub etc even before you've sent them a tune!
then again this guys is asking for tunes on DSF so maybe im giving him too much rep :-p although im sure he's alrite, he's given off a pretty professional air with all his replies so far.
Understandable argument you make, but he implied that he told Basic A the plan, thus assuming that he told him, he would have told me. However, in the past, i have been send the Aim/model of the business by just inquiring, then once i have happy, i said yes to the label. He did not send the FULL detailed information, understandably, but it was significant enough for me to see if i was right for them or not. So it can work vica versa depending on the label.
You said... professionalism, you can normally pick out the mickey mouse label but how they present them self to you, and how they act. If they are giving you intelligent answers back or not.
And i dare to say, but the quality of the artist they are signing.
big up.
