Most Would Choose None
January 27th, 2006 by Laura Moncur in MotivationWe now live in an era where we artists don’t need to choose record labels or galleries or publishers. Using the Internet, we can find audiences for our art without having to placate or pay a middleman. For photographers and painters, there is Flickr. For writers, there is Blogger. For musicians, there is Better Propaganda. If you want to create, there is a way for you to get your art in front of people looking for it.
What are you waiting for?

Actually, Better Propaganda has content almost exclusively from record labels (albeit smaller ones) and they say “We do not specialize in or focus on unsigned artists.”
Better choices might be Magnatune or CD Baby or maybe Indie911.
Also, I think if most musicians were to choose their own label, it would be something like “a genre-defying mix of trance and techno with African and Celtic influences.”
