hmm, ok well, if ya wanna go d.i.y. style, you dont need alot of money, or a high-priced lawyer.
and if you are signing relatively new or unknown artists, most will be happy to work on a commission, or % of sales basis, ie - no payment up front, but share in the profits.
definately alot of work, but heaps of fun!!!!

well anders, it is a very hard job 2 start a label, offcourse u can sign lots of unknown artists that maybe even make superb music, but in order 2 sell u'll need at least 2 tracks on a comp' that will come from a wellknown artist, but since u r a new, unknown and not well funded label, there is no reason y a wellknown artist will sign on your label....

but hey, y b passimistic, good luck my friend!
and i am also willing 2 do the A&R thingy, it sounds nice 2 recive demo CD's from lots of artists....hehe

i think he ment every connection!
u should start building your connection around the globe... from people who know the law and can help u in matter of court and stuff, 2 distribution companies, 2 factories that manfuacture CD, people who design covers, factories that would make your cover, your package of the cd, u'll need good connection with people from other already wellknown labels so that they could help u and guide u through the procedure of things...
i dunno, i dont work in a label or anything, but i can assure u that there r gazillion things that u havent thought through yet and even more problems along the way... u'll need 2 thing very carfuly if u wanna get into it!
