    I can see your point here... the music industry is becoming more fickle by the minute & labels seem to be very reluctant to take any chances on tunes that vere away from the mainstream expectancy - which is adifficult one to call...

    At the moment your stuff has it's own identity, which is cool in maa book, but alot of artists - even the established one's - have had to change to what the crowd wants, or will buy - the crowd now dictates what the DJ plays n they get scared to play anything out of the normal expected structured format...

    Anyways... bit of a blah there but you get my point - you only have to trawl thro 400 tracks at a download store to hear for yourself the sheer sameness that is going on

    So... I have a couple of projects on the make - I don't run any lables I'm afraid - I'm the same as you on the school front, doing a degree n all - n if your interested in contributing some of your art to help with exposure then lemme know n I'll email you ma thoughts on the subject...

    Groovy...

    @ Kaifeng, good to see you on here mate :)

    I'm surprised you haven't had more interest from labels for "Don't Mess", but I guess this track is quite unique, so maybe it is just too different for some labels to take a chance on. I did wonder if a couple of folks on this forum would want it for their label tbh. (Whaddya say, Oris?!)

    It might be a good idea to release even just one track yourself (cdbaby etc) because then when you approach labels in future, you can show them a proven track record; that you released Track A on a particular website and sold 100 units etc. I'm sure that would improve your chances for future label releases.
