In this episode of Other Record Labels, Scott shares in an insightful conversation with Emmet, the mastermind behind BudTapes, a record label based in the Pacific Northwest city of Portland, Oregon.
Like the say, "Fake it till you make it!"★★ This episode is presented by Hypeddit - Learn more at http://otherrecordlabels.com/hypeddit
Emmet's journey into the music industry started when he submitted his own music to a label he deeply admired. However, he soon discovered that this particular label wasn't a "real" record label per se; it was more like a "fake label" used to release their friends' music.
This revelation was an eye-opener for Emmet, who had always harbored dreams of running his own record label. It showed him that, just like that admired label, he too could create a platform for artists with Bud Tapes.
In truth, many of us are navigating our paths in the music industry by pretending we have it all figured out until we actually do.It reinforces the notion that we're all in this together, learning and growing as we go along. A sentiment that Emmet and I discuss in this week’s episode!
