I'm thrilled to share this interview I did with Scott Orr, who runs a podcast series and a support resource for record labels called Other Record Labels!

This summer I stumbled across Scott's podcasts after watching a podcast he did with Inner Ocean, then some older ones with the likes of Taylor Deupree at 12k and Warp Records. I was hooked not just by the labels and artists whom I admire, but also Scott's laidback and supportive style. I dived into all the resources he's built for record labels (advice that is useful for artists too!) and bought his book on marketing too. One of the things I checked out was a free template resource and after grabbing that, Scott reached out and after an exchange or two, he invited me for a chat on his new season of podcasts!

In this podcast, Scott kicked off by chatting about the CD format, why I've stuck by this format through a time when the younger generation deemed it less fashionable, and what I think to its resurgence among that same generation. We talked about vinyl a little including why the label is inspired by the label, the different vinyl-effect formats here at Whitelabrecs, and also, the fact that I've finally taken the plunge to order my first Whitelabrecs vinyl release - out in November. There's lots of insight in there on how I work with artists, some of the challenges a record label might face today and much more.

PS - Don't be put off by the grumpy face in my photo - I lighten up a lot in this podcast!

PPS - Scott also runs his own record label called Other Songs, and has some music of his own coming out soon. He's from a graphic design background and it really shows in his packaging design! His music is awesome too - below is a little Bandcamp player if you wanted to give it a listen...
