Starting a label...

[Miss_Barbarella]

Does any one have experience with setting up your own label? If so can you offer any advice?

I'm sure there are lots of pitfalls to avoid and things you wish you'd known when you started. So, anyoneone willing to help?

Hi

Probably the best place to start is to contact your local recording industry rep (AIM in the uk) and get their advice. Similarly you may be able to get funding from a local grant body (Arts council etc.)

Just a thought...

sew up the publishing and then make a record...

operate it as any business.... investment capital, promotion etc.... the two types are one that is commited to distribution and the other which is commited to production.. or you can be a bit of each... depends really on how much money you have to invest...
