you would honestly be 100 times better just getting in touch with the uk clubs and sending more and more CD's out from my experience, i know the scene very well over here and there are alot more clubs who are totally trying to strip away the business feel to their nights in all aspects, including in how they book their dj's. There are the obvious nights like Voodoo and Atomic Jam the big hitters as it were who stick to pretty rigid rosters usually via the big agencys, but there are tons of smaller clubs about and i'd personally just get in touch with alot more of them.

I can see Massplanks point definately, i was a little taken aback when i first read it to be honest. You need an agenct if your someone like Preach's size, or looking like your heading that way sometime soon, and with all due respect its kinda like running before you can walk. Your "career" hasnt even started yet, as neither has mine or anyone else i know with only around 4 releases to their name, whilst personally being a significant milestone from the first release, commerically its really nothing, as it's become so easy to get records signed and released these days that it is mainly just an expensive promotional tool until your music starts to form your whole image as an artist, with your own defined sound and significant sales to back it up

i really wouldnt worry about agencies or agents or anything like that for a couple of years, if at all. No one NEEDS them, it is more than possible to do everything yourself and imo it keeps that ever more present stench of business, business, business just a little more at bay.
