The Music Elevator

THE MUSIC ELEVATOR can offer a launch platform for your release and help take your music to the next level.

Our label's 'service deal' offers a complete administration and coordination package, saving you the time and hassle of PRS, PPL and chart registration, arranging promo copies, compiling mail out lists, postage, packing, phone calls, emails, follow ups, and all the procedures involved during the build up to a release.

We can help create a ‘buzz’ over your music by posting out promo cds and emailing press kits to relevant radio shows, magazines, and webzine reviewers around 6 weeks surrounding the release date of your download. We will include a professionally written ‘one sheet’ in the package with a full write-up on your track(s).

Our service is brought to you by the same people behind Whimsical Records, a label which has enjoyed indie chart success and copious amounts of airplay and critical acclaim with numerous releases, so you can feel secure in the knowledge that your record will receive the same attention during the promotional period. Our artists THE SHERMANS. reached number 7 in Scotland with their second single on Platform - 'Venom'.
