17. Record Label Research

Domino Record Label










An independent record label based in the UK running for almost 20 years, the company was founded in 1993 by Laurence Bell and Jacqui Rice. When the company was founded a lot of their releases were from American artists, signed to 'Drag City'. Domino records also have a German branch and a French branch.





However, Franz Ferdinands album 'You Could Have It So Much Better' released October 2005 and the Arctic Monkeys single 'I Bet You Look Good On The Dance Floor' released later in thee same month meant that Domino records was now a widely recognised record label.











Many artists have a contract with the Domino record label, such as the Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand, the dirty projectors and Hot Chip.

Out of the three record companies I have researched, I've concluded that 'Domino Records' would be the most appropriate record label for out music video. I have decided this because not only are they a UK based company but the artists and bands that they have a contract with are the ones that me and other members of my group like the most, meaning that we are likely to pick a song by one of these artists or bands or pick a song that is similar to the ones these bands and artists have done.
