2007
The main proper record labels Sunset Records
along with Tropical
Records (Cryout, Stondie), all
started releasing music in 2007.
Zamza's, Turn To You was the first official release at the
Sunset Records on July 11, 2007. Grayscale soon followed
with That Flawless Flashing Day and today, Sunset has a
major indy presence with many releases throughout all of the
labels.
Sunset started with the concept of using branded
licensed material to work our way into retail stores
around the world. Sunset Strategic Marketing (SSM) releases
CDs, Boxed sets and DVD titles. SSM
is the main record label for the licensed material, and Sunset
Classics and Jazz releases include incredible smooth sounding
jazz and licensed classical music while the Sunset Home Visual
Entertainment (SHE) Division continues to releases home video
titles. The Sunset Music Publishing Company owns and licenses
the copyrights of this popular recorded music. This concept
has paved the way for us to be able to sign quality new
music today, and be able to work new music artists in
the same way we delivered our licensed product.
