  • Good listen!

    Other record labels is a great podcast for people interested in potentially starting a record label. It would have been a nice resource to have when I started my small label, Treeline Recordings. I had to speak with other labels and learn as much as I could at random from the internet when I began. A consolIdated resource would have been amazing.
