Sound engineering. If you're a good sound engineer, you can basically get any album or record signed. All major labels look for excellent sound engineering first, and creativity second. This may sound counterintuitive, however if something is very creative and sounds unprofessional, they won't sign it. If it sounds excellent though very uncreative, it's still professional so there is a high chance of them signing it.
Of course you need both, much like anything great, however a well engineered track will get you significantly further than a creative track with poor engineering.
If you can do both, you will be a rockstar, literally.
