We like what you do already, that's why we're working with you.
2. Our focus is to develop artists and support them in making interesting music and art and to break down barriers (musically, artistically, and otherwise). Music and art can change the world, and we seek to empower you to do that.
3. Revolutionary Exchange Records isn't about money. We plan to foster an environment where our artist
s have total freedom of expression, and our ultimate goal is ensuring that our artists will not have to worry about having a day job. We will do what we can to make that happen.
4. We will be offering artists a full range of services to help further your career, from help with writing and composing (by the artists' request only, it's your music, do it how you like), recording, finding gigs, touring and participating in festivals, marketing and promotion, and other services that allow the artist to focus on making and performing music and/or art. We do the dirty work.
5. Revolutionary Exchange Records doesn't work with artists who promote hate. We actively recruit artists from a diverse set of backgrounds and experiences (which creates a broader base of knowledge from which to create great music and art). In particular, we look for artists who are women, people of color, LGBT, international, who have disabilities, or are marginalized by popular culture.
6. Our artists don't have to be political, but racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and other beliefs that are rooted in fear and hatred will have no place with us. We foster unity, not division.
7. We encourage, but don't require, our musicians to go beyond music and think about ways to supplement their songs with live shows, visual art, dancers, and anything else that expands upon the creativity and the message of the artist. We don’t care how crazy your idea is. Our first question is "How can we make this crazy idea a crazy awesome reality?"
8. Our goal is to make our artists' success as inexpensive for them as possible, using the full range of modern technology and techniques to keep costs down. The sooner we can help you make a living creating music and/or art, the happier we are.
9. We are not interested solely in the business of making music or art. We love music and live it and share that love and passion with everyone we interact with. We are your No. 1 fans, other than your parents and your significant other (if you have one). Then we will be your No. 2, 3 or 5 fans, and we’re ok with that.
10. We're also new at this. We ask your patience in giving us some leeway in figuring out how best to navigate a rapidly changing entertainment industry. We have your best interests at heart (don't worry, we'll put that in writing), and will always be working toward your future success.
