Tarabtronic is an independent electronic music record label and a sanctuary for emerging electronic artists. We sign and promote dubstep and bass music alongside house, techno, trance and drum and bass, and sending us a demo is always free.
What dubstep and bass music do we sign?
Dubstep, riddim, melodic dubstep, future bass, bass house and UK bass. Dubstep usually sits around 140 BPM with a half-time feel, while future bass and bass house vary more. We look for heavy, clean sound design, a memorable drop and a track that feels like you. Artists keep full creative freedom.
How to send a dubstep demo to a record label
- Send one finished, unreleased track that you made yourself, through our Submit Demo form.
- Upload it as an MP3 (320 kbps recommended, up to 25 MB). Links are not accepted, so every demo can be checked for copyright.
- Name it clearly: Artist – Title (Original Mix).
- Leave headroom on the master and only use samples and vocals you have cleared.
Every demo goes through an audio recognition check to protect artists, so only send music you own or have fully licensed. You can send one demo per month. Read our Demo Submission Terms for the full rules.
