I did. On upcoming EDM label Full Trance Panic. We are making a Hardcore and Trance free promotional albums now. We should become a full-fledged label in a few months, and we're a registered trademark in US and UK already.
I'd just like to become verified as a producer/artist.

if you get 1; influx, archefluxx & me(http://www.hardbeatsdownload.com/products.php?product_id=16685) should get one too. influx especially since he's had releases on tons of labels.

and me for NSR release

digital releases dont count, tbh cd/vinyl releases don't count anymore as Artist badges dont seem to be given out anymore.

I've brought this up a couple of times.
The measure is a vinyl release that sold a certain amount of copies which is way outdated because basically nobody releases vinyl any more. It's hardly a measure of verification.
I've had 20-30 (maybe more) digital releases spanning across probably 5 or 6 labels including NSR and AWF - arguably some of the most successful digital-only labels. When i was releasing on AWF (which i was a part of building mind you) we had tracks (the label's and my own) charting in the IMO download charts - both in highest downloads of the week, month and of all time (i've had tracks sit in all of said charts) and tracks from the label featured on prestigious compilations like hardcore underground (i think it was no.4 with rivers flow), we (the label and my own personal trakcs) were getting sold on IMOdownload, Hardbeats download (which does not accept every label, and there is a verification process) and i even had one of my releases be sold "exclusively" by hard beats... and i also featured on one of the NSR compilations, along with fingaz MC.
And i don't have one.
And if i'm not getting one, you're not getting one for starting your own label which does free promotional work, and of which isn't even a "fully-fledged" label yet.

Proper CD release is good too. Though to get a badge the record has to be in the sites DB and i don't think anyone updates it anymore.

I think it should be reserved for well established and proven artists. Otherwise anyone who sells something on imo could get one and it would mean nothing.

That sucks... So there are many more things to do.
It's not really my label. I am just an Executive Officer and DJ Rufus is the Chief Executive Officer (the big boss). For now we only release free work, which is the best idea for now IMO. But as our warrior Rufus is FINALLY back to America from Afghanistan, we are going to become a full-fledged label in a few months, releasing both for cash and free. And Rufus has big plans though.

Then I guess there's really no hope for me.
