There was so much hype behind these two tracks before they even got released, all because the right DJ('s) where rocking them across the globe but keeping them on lock down. |

| Gloria Lemmel 27.03.2011 | I don't really try to get my stuff out there with other people, it's just if I play a track of mine at a party and someone wants to know what it is, I tell them I made it and give them a demo cd. Also, talk to friends of yours that have gigs in clubs every now and again or even residencies. They normally will be okay with tossing in a new track from a friend. Same thing goes for them, give the DJ some Demo CDs and tell him to give some out to people who are vibing to the music the most when he gets the chance. |
| Mirta Follweiler 24.03.2011 | Go to google and do some fishing, getting your tracks out there is a massive task. |
| Sherril Sondergard 23.03.2011 | I always thoughts I had to wait for label contact me. anyways I'll wait my stuff to be at his best. do you guys are signed? how long does it took you to get signed? |
| Breana Singerman 22.03.2011 | Look on Beatport for smaller labels in your field |

| Breana Singerman 22.03.2011 | Well, is your track very "run of the mill"? If so then you should try getting on a smaller, less known label as they are usually trying to jump on a trend and not start one. On the flip side, if your track is very different and unique, not following any trends but still a quality dance song (easier said than done) then try sending it out to the more well established labels who are known as the tastemakers. |
| Tierra Barbish 22.03.2011 | Man I wish I could get on a record label, I sent my track everywhere. And I'll try that DJ idea, but I only know a couple local DJ's, so I don't know if I can get it out to any DJ's out of state :/ |
