  • The Inner-Workings of a Label and the Logistics of an Album Release - George from Acrophase Records - Episode 10

    For this week's episode, we interviewed George from @acrophaserecords! Acrophase is an independent label who is breaking the traditional mold of record labels. We had a great interview with George about things such as the logistics of an album release, advice to artists who are trying to get signed, and also where the name Acrophase comes from! I came into this not knowing much about what goes on behind the scenes in labels and George did a great job of pulling back the curtain on it.
