I am not putting name on this because my friends tell me not to do it. They say I could get in trouble with scene so I am not using name.
I want to know how many artists and labels are to being screwed over by Wirikuta?
I have talked to lots of artists and labels who tell me this all the time. My friends label is one who is getting messed up lot of times and has almost went broke by this sh%%.
I have a new label and we signed "exclusive" deal for to be on Wirikuta. We give them our first VA and also I give to them my own split CD with a few friends for them to make and sell.
Now they not doing anything with CDs and they tell me they own my label and I can't have anyone else make the CDs or use my label's name. Is bullsh&* f you ask of me. I am not stupid but I am a still young kid who raised money from friends and family to do my own business.
Now Wirikuta f;;; us hard and we are not even getting out CDs or making any money to pay artists. I already paid some artists but still have to pay my friends and other close people.
Please someone talk about this. I know it is big news on IRC and chat for a few weeks, but no one wants to make a discussion about it. Why not people want to talk about this???
Please help all the new label who is to get ripped off. We all need to know this so as to be not doing it again.
Wirikuta BAD!!! Sorry &8&*& people and bad ^%$%&*^()& business to run that way. |

Maybe yes, but still it don't make you any better. Since you decide to run a business too - your label - you got to do it right. If you don't then how do you expect everything to work out well? All things that you mentioned are probably in the exclusive contract you signed with wirikuta. Did you read it thoroughly before deciding? Did you have a lawyer go through it and explain things that might have been unclear too you?
Don't get me wrong in this but a lot of times new labels are so hasty to make their releases that they just sign stuff without thinking about the consequences and as long as this thing goes on the situation justs gets worse.

We've been working with Wirikuta for over 2 years now, going for our 7th release, and never had any problems with them.
On the contrary I find them correct, always willing to explain, very responsive and a pleasure to work with.
But of course I can only speak for ourselves

U are not stupid but still u think putting up psytrance label is wise thing to do, if you would do any research you would find out that cd's aint selling and there is no point of doing psytrance cd's if you think it by numbers.
good luck with your label
and read the contract, if you still think u get hussled, hire a lawyer and sue wirikuta, wirikuta is legit busines and they have to follow the rules.
rules wich they have in contract with you

"..am not putting name on this because my friends tell me not to do it.."
wrong!! with some accusations like these ones, the least u could do is say who u r...
from what I know and what I ve heard, Wirikuta is very professional, and work with strong motivation and good taste....I agree with what Diskonekt said.."did u read the contract?"...
anyway dear "Imknowbody"
..good luck

maybe it's psynina in disguise !
but seriously, JESTER RECORDS does business with them and they have paid us for almost all CD's shipped to them and have always been very responsible in all ways. they answer all there e-mails fast and there check's don't come back NSF !!
i doubt they want to steal a no-name label's CD and say it's there own.

we're also working with Wirikuta and we haven't any problem so far. good people and very professional.
i think reading the agreement is very important in all cases. verify if you can handle with their rules. and if something goes wrong, try to make a deal.
i wish you luck.
all the best.
