Nothing Lasts Forever and AlphaPhotek.com Record Label startup

Good morning folks :)
                 I wanted to start off this day to talk about some of the very exciting news and future events to take place very soon. First and foremost, I would like to announce that I am starting my own record label AlphaPhotek Music. The decision came to me when I saw that alphaphotek.com was available for purchase, and being an Information Technology guy I thought this would be a great opportunity to do something big. I was getting tired of waiting to produce something good that would grab enough attention from any record labels, and would get me signed.
                A lot of the times, when a producer gets signed by a record label, the musical creation process changes drastically. Instead of making music that the producer enjoys to listen to and create, he/she is now pressured by the label to make something that produces money not music. Since the label pays money to the producer, he/she is now very limited in this creative process. The purpose of AlphaPhotek Music Record Label is to unite gifted artists and build a reputation of a music label that allows creativity to flow freely instead of being limited to the processes that are sure to make money. The label currently has three members, AlphaPhotek, Budgy and Solution; all three started with Propellerheads Reason software to produce music of the current generation.
               The website alphaphotek.com will hold Biography of all the artists under the label, news and announcements most of all it will host all of our music to download and listen to. The second part of this post is to announce that even though my downloads are free on soundcloud.com/alphaphotek, I am unable to host all of my songs on there forever. Since my account is free on soundcloud, I have been forced to remove some of my work from there to upload my new ideas.
               Again the tracks that are uploaded there are not complete, and therefore are free to download and provide feedback for my creative process. So please, if you like them, download it while it's still there! That's all for now. Oh and P.S. I will be purchasing my own firs synthesizer, the Novation MiniNova in the next few months, so be on the lookout for some new heavy bass tracks coming out from me :) AlphaPhotek

Hello world! So since my last post, you now know that I have been producing for over 12 years. Here are some tracks that I decided to upload today from my early years. This stuff is at least 10 years of age. Enjoy! As always free to download :) http://snd.sc/171JqXk http://snd.sc/1hUqA3O http://snd.sc/171IHpe http://snd.sc/1bvJpbH http://snd.sc/1gigX3a AlphaPhotek

A little bit about me. Born and raised in Krasnoyarsk Siberia for 13 years I came to United States in 2001 a week before 9/11 happened. Never got to see the twin towers which were the symbol of this great country when I first came here. I was practically born with a laptop in my arms and been producing music since I was 13. It all started with my huge interest in Information Technology and Acid Loops. I have been doing Propellerheads Reason exclusively for over 10 years. Bassdrive.com has been my main inspiration. Shouts to Methodus, Stunna, A-Sides, London Elektricity, NuTone, Komatic, Technicolor, Random Movement, Tyler Straub, Lomax, Jason Magin and the list goes on! This is my first blog and I will start adding to it everyday. Thanks for your time!
