Open-source record label

An open-source record label is a type of record label that gives away the music it releases for free. This means that anyone can listen to the music and use it how they like, and even make their own versions of it. This can be really helpful to indie musicians who don’t have access to big recording studios and a lot of money to spend on their music, because they can still get their music out to the world without having to pay for a recording or distribution. Some open-source record labels also work with artists to help them become more successful, offering support and advice.
