Hi all i was just wondering if any of u Australians out there are making any happy hardcore? If so maybe we could form a record label and get the aussie scene here kicking with some of our original tunes.

if you're really serious about it talk to weaver. he's fairly well known in the sydney scene now, has his own little studio and an upcoming release on raver baby.
i'm really interested, starting an aussie hardcore label has been one of my main goals after i leave school. i just haven't finished yet so i don't have good equipment. so many ideas for tunes though! so yeah if you actually get this going make sure you contact me i'd love to get involved. it takes alot of money to get something like this off the ground. especially hard in australia coz you won't have the amount of customers here that you'll need to fund shipping overseas which can be expensive.
again if you're serious about it it's worth trying to track down daydream to ask him about it.

Ive already spoken to weaver, were gonna discuss it onbce ive finished year 12 which is at the end of this year. Basically we neeed $5000 to get one song out, its a fair bit but were gonna look at how we can get the tracks out , one way we were thinking was to get the big names like hixxy etc to play it at one of there sets and then hopefully the crowd would get familiar with it, but the question is why would they want to play it?
As for Weaver having a release on raver baby i dont know bout dat but it is very possible, but i was thinking that it would be on storm and hermans label as hes more closer friends with storm. But anywayz the main point is the money situation but hopefully we could clear dis up maybe organise a event or something, or release it on cd first and then if the crowd like it start releasing on vinyl.

I've also read about an upcoming Weaver track on Raver Baby ... 'Dreams', I think it was. Forget where I read it, though.

so are you willing to release any tunes that people send you? (obviously if they're good enough and suit the style)
that's very generous but i'd still like to see an aussie hardcore label get off the ground.... it would make me a very happy man indeed. so you're finishing your hsc too this year yogi? what school are you at??? after hsc, i'm willing to put alot of effort into getting some tunes going. i am also willing to contribute to the funding of this operation and any management/administration/operational duties that would be required.
as for getting the top djs to play your tunes.... if they're good tunes, people will play them. just send everyone free copies. big djs like to play promos as they're relatively exclusive and if they're good tracks then there's nothing to worry about.

djyogi: It's a standard rate, it's fair, but I can't discuss it here. Make a track and I'll make you an offer. As for the masterwax aussie thing I don't really have a Japan only market so I couldn't really offer you my name.
pacman: Sure send me tunes, this is how I discovered and launched dj phosphor.

to get a record label going wouldnt cost u more then $1000, like all u have to do is rgeister a business name get someone to make you a logo and thats it but then if u want the record made over here its expensive as hell and u cant just say i want 10 records cut so instead we have to get like 500 - 1000 minimum which costs about $4000 - 5000 i think.

Sounds like a great idea. Have you looked into getting government funding or sponsoe funding like that Nestcafe big break. I'll be more than willing to help out. $5,000 sounds like some good starting capital, but, it won't last for that long. you really have to look into the major costs. The business will have to look at its strenghts, weaknesses , opportunities and threats. I guess what I suggest is that we all get together and discuss this on an open agenda.
