[microsound-announce] white label 12inch

[Thaniel Lee]

im working on my first serious dance EP and i would really like to release
it on an analog format and a digital format, and im wondering if i should
release it my self,and how much of a hassle it would be to do so or should i
try to find a label to release it, and how hard that would be to do so.
