How to find a record company that will actually pay you percentage of whats been sold

[Croatia MD]

Hi guys,
Question is as in title.

6 years ago I stopped making music. I signed all together 6 songs to a 2 record companies before I stopped. Long story short, I've never recieved a dime, and my songs even today sell on beatport, not to mention other sites.
Now, thats behind me, I dont care about that story anymore, I dont have contracts and I dont want to fight that battle now.
But right now i have 3 songs that could be signed, but I wanna get the best deal. Best deal? The record company that would actually pay me any money.

How to achieve that? Does anyone have any advice please. Thanks!

You know you can put them up yourself on Beatport?

I did not know. I'll look into it.

It says they only work with labels.

Thanks, I'll check that out. I feel like I came back to the future. I had nothing with music production for 6 years.
I'd rather go with selling something like this then to go with a poor label company.
Maybe a smart thing would be to try some quality label companies before going on your own.

Tnx.

You don't find a record label that does this... You negotiate it in your contract
