www.baked-goods.com (Argon and Tectonic)

www.southern.com (Tempa, Planet Mu, Rephlex)

www.zaudio.co.uk (normally they only distribute breakbeat labels, but you could give it a try ...)



But as Cure said: St Holdings is the most important distro channel around.

Doubtful they are looking for a bunch. As they are tuff on wanting Quality music, not lots of labels. Or thats to my understanding.

Ive been with Nu-Urban since the start. Been real good to Flatline and are launching Dubline. Try them. :wink:

by thinking
ST are distributing more dubstep than any other distro at the moment - but they do have a lot of people submitting stuff for consideration at the moment. Worth chatting to them.

very nice (said in borat style). high five to all the r8 family.
i think nu urban are looking at the opposite to ST, as in they want quantity foremost.

It would be silly to think any distributor isn't thinking about quantity as the foremost object of interest. Obviously if you have quality music, you should have a fair quantity of units sold. Its a buisness with a focus on making money. Nu-Urban isnt looking to put shit music out just for sales. Those guys work hard, and have very good people and music/labels affilated with them. 8)
