a netlabel will give you nothing you couldn't achieve yourself with a bit of hard work. that being said, some netlabels do give nice exposure to a larger audience. most don't.

This is probably accurate.  If you're talking about one of the "big" chip netlabels (Pause, 8bitpeoples, Ubiktune, etc.) they get enough regular traffic that releasing with them will undoubtedly get you more downloads.  But really, if you're talking about a smaller netlabel, you could probably do just as well self-promoting it and releasing on bandcamp.  But you do actually have to promote it.

that's pretty awesome that your ensemble was so open to your contribution.  seeing that it was an "electronic ensemble" though, i'd think that you were fortunate that your gear wasn't that far a cry from what they had. 

compare that to, say, a high school band -- can you imagine the music teacher holding auditions for 1st, 2nd and 3rd gameboy?

LOL oh man, that reminds me, Me, Chipocrite, An0va, Animalstyle and whoever else wants to join in were considering creating a gameboy orchestra.
