When a LABEL SAYS NO...Here's 5 things to ask yourself. (read replies)
WAS THE TRACK READY?
It's super important to make sure your tracks are well mixed & mastered before submitting to any label, and that nothing is clipping/sounding thin or empty.

HAVE YOU TRIED SUBMITTING TO RADIO SHOWS?
Getting a DJ to support/play your track on their radio show can help you create some buzz for your track and make it easier for labels to take notice.

CAN YOU RE-WORK THE TRACK?
If you get feedback from the label, can you implement it? Can you get more feedback from other producers and see if there's anything you could possibly adjust/add to the track? Sometimes, just a few tweaks can have your track sounding 10x better.

WAS IT A GOOD FIT FOR THE LABEL?
Before submitting to a label, check their current releases and see if yours has as a similar vibe (but also be sure it still stands out).

DID YOU GET ENOUGH FEEDBACK?
I suggest having 3-5 producers give feedback - who aren't afraid to give you critical feedback, and who know what they're talking about.
