We believe that if you don’t like our music you should change every detail about yourself, because you have obviously made the wrong choice every time there has ever been a choice to make.</p> <p>The fact is, we’re barely able to be considered a legitimate record label. We’re more of a facade to help promote the music of Art Vandelay because some people are stupid enough to perceive music more positively, if they believe that said music was good enough to have been distributed by a label. This is true even if they are aware that said label happens to be nothing more than a crappy logo and a domain name. </p> <p>Stay tuned for the latest Updates from all of our artists, we’ll be doing promotional give aways with fun games and contests.
