blackaud.io Recordings is a small independent label from Germany founded in 2017 by André Höche. We’re releasing all kind of electronic music with a strong focus of innovation and eagerness to experiment. The idea is to create unique sounds without any borders and see music as art, not as a business model.

At the moment we’re only offering digital distribution but plan to release also CDs and Vinyl depending on our success.

Our tracks are free to listen (stream) and pay to download which is fair to the consumer and also the artists. Listen as much as you want and support the artist by paying for the download.

All our tracks are GEMA-free which means you don’t have to pay if you play our tracks live (but please consider the so called GEMA Vermutung in Germany). In the future we’re plan to work together with the C3S as soon as it is ready.
What we offer to artists

If you think blackaud.io is the right label for you feel free to contact us and send us your demos. We will support you with mixing, mastering (if necessary) and offer a world wide distribution of your tracks with a very fair share for the artists.

Send your demos to (link to download or stream) to demos at blackaud.io with a short description of yourself and your music. We will listen to every demo and provide feedback but depending on the amount of demos this might take some time.
