King Volume Records - (Record Label Interview)

King Volume Records - (Record Label Interview)

“If you put your artists first and try to think about what would be the best thing for them, eventually your needs will get met.”

What if a record label ignored the “industry rules,” bundled three unknown bands into a cassette box—and sold out?

Presented by LANDR - http://landr.com/otherrecordlabels

Todd White of King Volume Records joins Scott to share how his DIY indie-metal label went from a fun side project to his full-time job.

We cover:

  • The cassette bundle strategy that built early community

  • Why Bandcamp is more valuable than chasing Spotify streams

  • How to sign artists by putting their needs first

  • The $150,000 Kickstarter success story and what made it work

  • Why creative, imperfect marketing beats polished “content”

This episode is packed with label-building breakthroughs, mindset shifts, and real tactics you can steal today.
