C'est tres difficile I suppose. The label I most
respect and probably has the most success in
electronic music other than Warp is Mike Paradinas'
(aka Mu-Ziq, Kid Spatula, etc.) label Planet Mu. I've
read that he works probably about 70 hours a week to
keep everything running and decently profitable. It's
definitely a labor of love (
http://www.planet-mu.com).
If you ask me, slsk is crushing the electronic music
system--and, please, nobody start up that old bullshit
file-sharing argument. I'm just as guilty because I've
downloaded empires of music but eventually, one has to
concede that the economics don't work out if people
get your shit for free.
But, having a cool label would be the greatest
fun--even if I took a hit financially. It's the same
principle as being a promoter. If you have to bleed a
little but have a wicked party that everybody loved,
then that's what it's about, innit?
My two cents....
