How To Start a Record Label From Scratch with DJ A-L

How To Start a Record Label From Scratch with DJ A-L

We’re bringing another powerful learning experience to Denver DJ School. On Sunday, November 30, 2025 from 12:30 PM , DJ A-L of Retro Respect Records will be leading a workshop on how to launch your own record label from the ground up.

If you’ve ever wanted to put out your own music, build a brand, or support other artists, this session will give you the real steps you need to move forward with confidence.

What You Will Learn

DJ A-L will break down the full process of creating a record label and building it the right way. You’ll learn how to develop a clear identity, understand the legal and business basics, choose the right distribution, and map out a release plan that makes sense for your goals.

He will also cover branding, visuals, marketing, and how to set yourself up for sustainable growth as an independent label.

Everything he teaches is practical and based on real experience. You’ll be able to take these steps and apply them immediately.

Why It Matters

Independent music is bigger than ever. DJs and producers are releasing their own work, building communities, and creating opportunities for themselves instead of waiting for them. The challenge is knowing where to start and how to avoid common mistakes.

DJ A-L has built a respected label through consistency, creativity, and strong direction. Learning directly from him gives you insight you won’t find online.

Who This Workshop Is For

This workshop is for anyone interested in starting a label or releasing music independently.

It’s ideal for:
• DJs looking to release edits, remixes, or original music
• producers ready to build a brand
• artists who want more ownership and control
• creatives interested in the business side of music
• anyone curious about how labels operate today

No prior business experience is needed. Just bring your questions and your vision.
