First of all you must love what you are doing.
Then you need the money.
Finnally a good lawyer.
All other things come on their own.

I suggest that you contact some of the label owners here. You can identify them easily by the green color. Just ask them for advice, I'm sure that they will be happy to help.

OK Andres. to start a label you basicly need one thing. Money.
What you do is like this. you buy (or make) music.
the A&R is the guy(s) who decide if the music is good enough / fits the label style to be released on the label.
after you have decided what tracks you want to release you sign contracts with the artists (or woth yourself) to release their music. here there are many variations about Exclusivity, teritory, advances, other payments and more. for this it's good to either have a good lawer or to know the law really good yourself.
After you have to go and press the music (CD or Vinyl or any other Media you want) design and packadge it. then ou need to find a distributor to bring it to the shops (again contracts and stuff). and finaly you need to convince people to buy your product.
in short, alot of money and work.
