Project Description

A netlabel (also online label, web label or MP3 label) is a record label that distributes its music in digital formats (mainly MP3 or Ogg Vorbis) over the network.

An online label functions as a traditional label at the time to produce and promote music projects (such as albums or compilations).
Most use tactics of "guerrilla marketing" to promote their work.

The main difference between online and traditional labels is their emphasis on the firsts in free downloads, the complete opposite of publications on physical media (CD, vinyl or DVD). Often the music is released under licenses that encourage sharing, such as Creative Commons licenses. The artists usually retain copyright.

History

To understand the history of music labels operating in the network, one must go back to the first massive media files: the BBS (or Bulletin Board System).
The BBS was established on personal computers and allowed anyone with access to a telephone line using a modem, access to various collections of files
Among them were the so-called MOD, IT, S3M, or derivatives.

These formats were produced by artists through programs called "trackers" which enabled them to compose music using a wide library of sounds (samples).
Here's where electronic music as we know it today.

With the Internet boom came several websites that provide space for these digital artists. The navigator could freely access the material in the formats mentioned, characterized by being modified in all its aspects. Then came the MP3 technology, we all know: a sound file that can only be changed in the final aspects of production, not in its internal composition and instrumentation.

Traditional labels and large companies took advantage of the boom to be established through music portals, where the culture of free music given up for lost a battle. Multinational labels caught in the ideology of marketing, remarked a margin that would slowly grew and in which the existing registered independent record labels.
These, with little money and intelligence, promoted the birth of the netlabel.
