According to my experience marketing certainly has nothing to do with respect - that is a complete illusion based on skilled branding. Addmittedly makes approaching potential customers a tad easier, but it is not crucial by any means.

Oh really ? Well maybe in the UK, but not here. I know a band around me that is on a MAJOR french label, the one that's used to sold a lot. They've got a deal as good as you can hope for a first record. Do they make a full living out of it ? Nope. They've sold less single than we sell plugins here. I.E. NOT ALOT.There is a wealth of people living out of the most peculiar and imaginative music.

You´re right. My english... Anyway, perhaps I wanted to point out, that I wouldn´t loose all hope even if not yet that well known. Addmittedly it takes a whole lot of effort ie. activity - it´s plain hard and harder work to break the ice.visa tapani wrote:I feel we are using the word 'respected' in dissimilar fashion. What I meant with a respected label is basically a label with a solid fan base.
Because of its creative commons license, Magnatune would be my second choice of distribution if going solo doesn't work out. Check it out, it's pretty sweet for both consumers and musiciansdon't forget MagnaTune

Hmm... Ok... I got the impression that during that time they were still indie ie. nonsigned, promoting themselves - a very active one as such as I said above.VitaminD wrote:MfLI wrote: I remember guys at mp3.com making a fair heap of greens as total niche indies - Astral Projection and Madame Mercury to name a couple, but they were a really... really active bunch of operators.
uhmm.. Astral Projection are far from indie.. AAMOF they are considered one of (if not) THE "godfathers" of psytrance music.. so they already had a large fan base for a long time before they even built their website at mp3c
take a look at their recordings list.. http://www.discogs.com/artist/Astral_Projection
never heard of Madame Mercury though..
