R + P Post 15: My record label

We decided as a group to use an existing record label to produce our artist's debut album. We researched into record labels for similar artists such as AlunaGeorge and Disclosure and quickly came to a decision of which record label most suits our artist:

Island Records

Island Records is a record label and is a division of the Universal Music Group. It was found in Jamaica and has been based in the UK since 1962. The label focuses on the progressive UK music scene. Island also have branches in the US and Australia.

Here are some of the artists that are currently signed to Island records. Disclosure are a British Electronic music duo with a similar genre and target audience to our artist. The fact that they are signed to Island Records encouraged us to chose this record label as it shows they have experience and knowledge in how to promote our genre.
