Hi Folks.
I am in the process of starting a digital record label.
R3TOX DIGITAL RECORDINGS
We are looking for new artists to join us. The deal is non-exclusive and you as the artist will retain copyright and 100% of the royalties owed to you should your tune sell.
Firstly we are not doing something that you probably couldnt do on your own given the time.
We currently have tunes from 7 artists, including Phil Walls and possibly Pedro Delgardo on the label along with The Inspectors and some local lads producing quality tracks.
The music is being distributed digitally through digital-tunes.net each selling for £1, the artists get 75% of that and digital-tunes.net get the other 25%. Personally speaking i make nothing on this, I decided it was time to push forward into the 21st century and join the digital revolution.
The ethos of all this is that with digital distriubtion we can take risks on artists again, anything of good production values thats interesting to listen to is what we want to put out under the banner of R3TOX...
So, if you have any tracks you didnt get released because the distro's werent interested, but you personally LOVE and think needs an airing then give it to us, we'll put it up, give you promotional code for your myspace page, website etc and we can create a buzz again about good electronic music, rather than stuff with works the dancefloor...
Im hoping to liberate all that great music that was left on harddrives because labels wanted to make money rather than put out good music.
I hope you can all see where im coming from with this!
If you want to know more please dont hesitate to email me with questions!
Kind Regards
Chris Thornton
