The record company

Choosing a record label is important because this would decide how the album would be produced and distributed. To start the search for a record label I looked at what label the original artists was signed to.
Alesha dixon was signed to Polydor Records for a year and then she was signed by Asylum Records and Atlantic Records until 2011. After researching into all 3 labels I decided that Polydor Records would be best for our artist, but when I was reading further into the label I discovered that in 2006 they launched a new record label that would be dedicated to pop music.

Fascination Records:

  • It is a UK based record company that focuses on a relatively small number of pop artists
  • Signed artist such as: The Saturdays and Cheryl Cole (someone that our artist would be similar to)
  • Handles the UK release of American artists such as: Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus
I believe that this label would be good for our artist because it is UK based and as our artist is an up and coming new British artist. It is unlikely for her to be signed to a major international record label such as Sony BMG music entertainment or Universal music group.
