attention unreleased producers!! Posted on: 02.05.2011 by Dorcas Bassignani So i have had, what i believe to be, a genius idea!off the back of a conversation with another user on here i have decided to make use of my juno label management account to help out some of the guys/girls who haven't been released yet. i'm looking for 5 or 6 people with 1 or 2 tracks each to release on a low price compilation through my label on juno download (link in sig). was believeing doing it all as free releases, juno even recommend this from time to time, but figured the size of the compilation would be taking the piss, lol. Music wise i'm looking for dubstep, breaks or drum and bass. nothing with blatant samples though tracks have to wav format, junos rules not mine, and will be converted to other formats at juno end - very handy. in terms of mastering, would prefer if they can come pre mastered, but will do something to even out levels myself if it's really needed. if tracks can be mastered to around 6dB that would be great (standard for pressing to vinyl if i remember correctly, even though vinyl won't be part of this, but i've always found that has a 'fuller' sound with mp3/wav). The overall idea is based around promoting YOU and your tracks, gets your name out there and gets you on the juno database ready for releases later in life. example; someone like syour track, clicks the button to keep informed of future releases, you have a release on a big name label and that person will be emailed and know about it regardless of any promo stuff. As a result there won't be any upfront payouts on this release (info on that kind of thing towards the bottom of this post), but the backend royalties will be a higher percentage than normal pricing wise i'm believeing 192 mp3; free / 320; 79p / wav; 99p - already checked and i can do this as an example, you'll see about 22p per wav sale based on that and the following a breakdown on monetary distribution by juno to labels/artists (lifted from sales reporting page); 99p track > 84p sale value > 38p to label > 7p to artist as mechanical royalty pay outs every quarter to label if commission is greater than | |

| Lorina Eidsness 18.06.2011 | i'm in..i've got a few to put up |
| Dorcas Bassignani 18.06.2011 | UPDATE; got the tracks for this together now, check out the SC link below for them - good mix of melodic and bouncey within these 4 tracks shouts to Max Jones and Atac for supplying the tracks http://soundcloud.com/bradcee/sets/breakz-phenomenon-presents/ upload to Juno is presently happening so when that's done and i have the link i'll post a link in the 'new releases' thread to. in the mean time, if anyone else wants to get involved and have a release set-up then msg me, |

| Verona Fashbaugh 02.05.2011 | Cool idea. I've actually been working on a 6-track EP that I've been intending to release in June or July. In other words, I definitely have some fresh tracks in the works I wouldn't mind contributing if you've got the space still! |

| Leeanna Ayla 02.05.2011 | How are you going to handle mastering? |
| Dorcas Bassignani 02.05.2011 | some important edits have been done |

02.05.2011 | this might be interesting for my forthcoming EP. I have sampled several movies and game voiceovers though, so in the end I suppose it's gonna be a free release after all. you would have to define "blatant sampling". |

| Jacque Divinity 02.05.2011 | sounds interesting brad... almost as interesting as your make money - get bitches tag!! |
| Rashida Stieb 02.05.2011 | lol i like your tags, i'm believeing of compiling some mash-ups and offering them as a .zip free download. Will that be possible on your label? |
