Cant get beatport. (Last album did Not go platnum lol)
Soundclouds a good one. Got a modest following there.
Dont really follow the blog scene. Any recommendations for popular House/electro house blogs?

Put "as played by Deadmau5" on all your artwork. Do it.

A quick question. Are you self releasing these or are you signed by a recognised label?
I only ask becasue if it is the former then you have to work hard, using some of the techniques already mentioend to promo your work. If the latter, then you have to work hard getting THEM to promo the work for you.
Some of the online services such as reverb nation and groudn zero project will market for you for a fee.
The risk is, it always costs you more than you'll ever make back. but thats your choice.
keep going!

Releasing stuff is soo overdated now...
you should release it as "unreleased"
