I have the dream, yet I still do not have the money for it. But I am already making plans to start one. I've been looking up on how to start a business in my country. So, I'm checking on name registration, and the nature of the business and other laws. I know there is still a lot to be done, so this would not be surfacing anytime soon.

Any thoughts and suggestions regarding this?

Well, if you decide to go through with this, then make sure you have enough time to put into it. Managing a label can't be an easy thing, and I presume it consumes a lot of time and effort.

Starting one shouldn't be too hard, just contact a lawyer.

Yes, I'm expecting it to be quite hard. Although for this time, I am the only artist to be on the label. But this thing isn't going to take off soon, as a lot of planning still has to be made. If it ever pushes through, as I've mentioned before, I will be the only artist on it for quite some time, so I will be able to support the whole thing.

My plan to start this label comes from the idea that I would like to separate N. Andrei as an artist, and me as a businessman. So N. Andrei, and my record label are different entities, although they actually refer to the same person, just with different roles. So, if I'm going to make licensing deals and contact radio DJs, (or DJs playing at clubs, for that matter,) I will be using the business name instead, rather than N. Andrei, as an artist.

But a much more long term dream for this is the opportunity to provide even a few people with jobs. A lot of students graduating in the Philippines can't even find jobs here. I am one of the fortunate ones to be in a university where we are the ones sought after by companies, not the other way around.

Wow, that would be quite nice. I need to know as many DJs as possible, and of course friends don't hurt.

I see you've already added me on MySpace.

oh yes!!! im quick on the draw!!!

Awesome nick!

I will try to help you in whatever way I can.  When I get my label up and running, you and all the TP DJ/Producers will be the first people I sign.

Yeah. Can I just strike up licensing deals with you instead? I mean, with my record label, technically, I'm signed to my label. But you can help me out there in the US by being the "distributor" on the areas you're covering.

I'm dreaming big right now, but who knows. I might get this up and running in two or three years' time. But definitely this will not stay a dream.

good luck Nick, i hope you`ll be able to make your dreams come true :-)

Thank you, Cleo!

with time and money ANYTHING is possible

Yes, that's true, Anthony.

Hey Nick good luck with this one!

Thank you, Ben!
