labels




to phil and/or label seekers

if you are sending "practical jokes" (conceptual art-pieces) to labels that isn't a good start for anything..other than derision..

the best thing to do is to hang out, drink beers, go to shows, and work your pretty-little ass off with other people who are working their pretty-little-asses off just to stay not broke and (hopefully) record and release stuff.

i was going to release a bunch of stuff i recorded a little ways back, did LOTS of research, contacted a bunch of labels, got a chance to have peter rehberg listen to it, give some feedback,etc..and just decided that, revelation, it just WASN'T THE BEST TIME TO RELEASE IT! it's tons and tons of work to do something like this, especially with a 'big' label..

so instead i spent days and nights slaving over/booking/creating a fest, released stuff there, met some cool people (scott allison, eM, n.kra, v. stevenson, etc..), and am still working my ass off to record/write/set up shows/etc..

put simply, if you're not willing to do the time and slave away and work your ass off for something to happen, it probably won't, or probably wasn't meant to.
