Record Labels

I researched many different record labels to see which one i could use for my own artist. 
One of the most popular and well established record label for successful house music artist is Columbia. Columbia have signed many famous house artists such as Daft Punk and Calvin Harris. 
Another record label is Skint Records. This is a Brighton based dance and house music record label, they are highly credited for producing music for Fat Boy Slim, FreQ Nasty and Hardknox.
Big Beat records is an East Coast hip-hop and dance music record label. Originally a house music record label it has branched out to hip-hop and has produced music for Lil Kim and Junior mafia. Today Big Beat records include artists such as Skrillex. 
Spinning is an independent Dutch record label which has produced music for Afrojack along the years and of late, music for the young talented Dutch DJ Martin Garrix 

For my artist i have decided to go for Columbia and Spinnin' Records. Columbia are a popular well established record label which will provide good contracts and mainstream success is alost a guarantee as they have produced music along the years for Frank Sinatra, Beyonce and Daft Punk. Furthermore Spinnin' Records are known to give young talent a chance in the music world, signing young artists such as Martin Garrix who has proved to be successful.
I believe that these two record labels combined will bring great success to Jordan Morgan music.
