The Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (Mass Moca) is starting a record label aimed at developing artists, focusing on creativity, and giving exposure to musicians who are creating under-appreciated art. The first record on this new label came out last Friday. The Kasawambwe Brothers of Malawi recorded this album with help from Mass Moca. I spoke to Harlan Steinberger who runs a studio in Los Angeles called Hen House Studio. He's worked with artists like Willie Nelson and Sunny War, and has been recording music for decades. I had the chance to speak with him about this exciting new project, and what's in store for the future of Mass Moca Records. I hope you dig it!

Why do people really start record labels? For some, it's not always about money, streams, or press coverage. A lot of times, it's about fulfillment, legacy, and the simple joy of working with great music. In this episode of Other Record Labels, I share why I believe labels still matter and why so many indie label owners take the leap. From retirees starting labels as their “second act,” to artists who just want to build community, this conversation is both inspirational and practical. I also talk about our upcoming Labelmates Core Sessions Cohort, a 6-week program I'm hosting to help indie label owners find clarity, confidence, and fulfillment while building their own version of success.

There's one record label the world doesn't have yet—the one only you can create. In this episode, I'll share why the most successful indie labels today are the ones that are hyper-specific, intentionally niched, and built around their founder's unique obsessions. You'll learn how to uncover the “secret ingredients” that make your label stand out—whether you're brand new or you've been running a label for years but still feel undefined. Presented by LANDR - [landr.com/otherrecordlabels] We'll explore how combining your unique passions—musical and non-musical—creates a one-of-a-kind identity for your label, and why being oddly specific is the best way to thrive in today's music industry. Plus, I'll talk about my new book Why We (Still) Need Record Labels (out this week!). If you've been waiting for a sign to finally start (or reimagine) your record label—this is it.

In May 2024, two prominent record executives from California were arrested for their involvement in a large-scale money laundering operation linked to a Mexican drug cartel. The executives were accused of using their music industry businesses to conceal and launder drug money, making it appear as legitimate revenue from their record label operations.Authorities uncovered the scheme through a combination of financial audits, undercover operations, and collaboration with Mexican law enforcement. The investigation revealed that the executives facilitated the movement of millions of dollars by falsifying financial records and routing the funds through various shell companies and accounts.The arrests highlighted the intersection of the entertainment industry and organized crime, drawing attention to the sophisticated methods used by cartels to infiltrate legitimate businesses and obscure the origins of their illicit profits. The case is expected to have significant legal and financial ramifications for the music industry and those involved.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10924673/California-music-execs-arrested-business-Mexico-based-concert-promoter-linked-cartels.html

In today's episode, we're tackling a bold claim: record labels are obsolete. With home studios, DIY distribution, and powerful marketing tools, artists can now write, record, release, and promote their music all on their own. So… are labels officially irrelevant? Presented by LANDR [landr.com/otherrecordlabels] We break it down into three common reasons people say we don't need record labels anymore: Artists can do it all themselves. The old gatekeepers are gone. The art comes from artists, not labels. But here's the twist—just because artists can do everything doesn't mean they want to. Many crave teammates, collaborators, and communities that labels provide. And while the industry has changed, labels still offer something algorithms and DIY platforms can't: curation, creativity, and connection. Tune in as we explore why the role of labels may be shifting—not disappearing—and how indie labels can thrive in this new era of music.

For 33 1/3 years, Paul Rappaport made history as a rock promotions kingpin at Columbia Records, shaping pathways for the biggest artists of the '70s, 80s and '90s to find their audience. Paul has penned 'Gliders Over Hollywood: Airships, Airplay, and the Art of Rock Promotion', a memoir that captures the creative fun and the rich, human connection at the heart of the record business in its golden era.Paul shares stories of big-budget, wildly innovative stunts, like painting a radio station pink for Pink Floyd, sending a terrifying “alien invasion like” laser beam across Los Angeles skies for Blue Oyster Cult and jumping through every station relationship hoop to land Mick Jagger, out of the box, at number one on the charts! Paul reports  that in the records and radio world, it was friendships and reciprocity that made the  engines hum.Paul shares stories of his heart-to-hearts with Bob Dylan, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, and Mick Jagger and of his one-of-a-king thank you gift from Pink Floyd… an opportunity to join them on stage in London to shred and trade guitar licks with David Gilmour on Run Like Hell!With a deep reverence for music and the artists who shaped his world view, Paul reflects on the chance he was given to be a part of the effort alongside his boyhood heroes and to help them share their work with the world.Music is ever-evolving and to get radio stations on board with new sounds, Paul would often grab everyone from neighborhood radio stations and record stores and personally initiate them to the glory that is Billy Joel or Bruce Springsteen live and in concert. It worked! He arranged one-on-one interviews, including the time Philadelphia radio personality Helen Leicht looked into the eyes of Paul McCartney and broke into tears.  Sir Paul jumped up and pulled her into a hug. Beatles up close are sob inducing. He gets it.Co-host Weezy, also a radio/records veteran, talks shop with Paul, remembering warmly the kooky and collaborative crusade to celebrate and share the music. They also discuss the future of terrestrial radio.

Trapital Summit is on Sep 10 in LA. Join us! Get your tickets here. The major record labels are adapting for the modern era. Lately, that shift has them looking less like RCA and more like KKR. These companies have invested less in signing new artists and more in acquiring the legendary back catalog of music. With streaming driving steady royalties, the music rights of proven hits are valuable. Music companies have teamed up with private equity firms to cash in. I also break down how this changes artist deals, lowers risk-taking, and opens the door for global investors and even artists to buy in. 00:33 The Shift to Private Equity 03:45 The Back Catalog Boom 09:24 A&R Reductions 12:14 What The Future Holds This episode is presented by State Farm, the home for your small business needs.
