How do I setup a record Label

[Retro6]

So basically, what I need is help figuring out how to set up a record label step by step — what the process actually involves, how to manage it, what the key responsibilities are, and what the typical costs might be.

I already have a limited company, could I register it under that?

I have no idea. But I pasted your message into chatgpt and it gave me what looked like a great start.

A record label is fundamentally just a company that owns rights/licences music and distributes it?

As above, chatgpt is your friend but if you have no particular experience and haven’t fallen into this industry, it might be a bit of a struggle? Nothing is impossible right enough.

The most important step is to find the next Oasis.

think you need a gang, and a rival gang, and a tik tok account.

Do you have an Irish accent, and or trousers pulled up really high? If not, that’s the first 2 steps. You’re welcome.

Question: why would you want to get involved in an industry where you have no experience, don't know what the process actually involves, how to manage it, what the key responsibilities are, and what the typical costs might be?

This iF serious, if you have some music you want copyrighted put a CD in an envelope and recorded delivery it to yourself ... job done seeing as that's about all record companies are good for these days.

you make a company. You create a contract between yourself and an artist, they provide you what you asked for in the contract, you provide them with whatever you promised in the contract, then you do whatever you want with the music that has been produced and you now own - put it on spotify, youtube, print a load of cd's/vinyl and tell people its "the best **** since sliced bread", profit?

 

[arknor]

these days you probably just make a spotify account and post other peoples music on your account and give them like 5% of the income their music makes.
