Center of The Indie Label Universe

We (the MTSU Recording Industry students and myself) will blog and admire the history of all things indie. For the indie is the center of the label universe, they record and release that which is unique, that which is unaffected, that which is from the artist. Since the days of Gennett and Okeh then Sun, Chess, Blue Note, Atlantic and now Koch, Rounder and Equal Vision - it is the indie label that releases revolution and respects their fans and artists at every step of the way.
