in the old days...
ok not a track per se but this pertains to my tracks i linked in this forum.
in the old days (back in 1998) me and my buddy got signed to puny podunk indi label to produce drum n bass and we did a cd it was fun.
now jump forward to 2001. i have some tracks i want to shop to labels. not for cd, not for big record deals etc. i just want to shop out singles for sale.
whats the process? it seems like there are a million sites out there to promote music but no one putting out singles (at least the kind sold in the record stores) are on these sites.
so with all the technology etc... i guess the best way to go about this is the same way i did it before the internet? just to mail demos out to the a&r guys at labels i like?
i guess theres winter music but that stuff makes me ill.
most of the people getting tracks signed know someone. i don't know anyone. :-)

ps- oh yah, indie releases other that short run cdr are not an option.. i don't have time to write music and hustle my vinyls to record shops.
