Our approach was established through a collaboration with Michael Head. By closely aligning an artist's vision and agenda with our philosophy and standards, we create an environment that authentically and stylishly represents our shared values and intent.

We foster creativity, authenticity and independence. We believe in the work of talented artists who share our vision, enabling us to collectively uphold a high standard in the creation and presentation of their music.
