Flashpoint Records is an independent recording label specialising in rock / pop music. Flashpoint Music was formed to source talented hard working artists and writers who have the desire and ambition for international success. In the past 5 years the company has grown to encompass music production, a publishing and recording label, an online distribution service with iTunes for unsigned bands, an on-line music store and a massive studio complex.

The recording label has an 'old school' (Ted Albert) approach to artist development and business. We have a major studio complex for our artists to spend the time to write and record so we have no need to outsource facilities and put bands into massive amounts of debt to achieve a world class product. It comes naturally here and without all the huge outlay. We don't give massive advances either, as we have a realistic approach to the new digital age of music and the dwindling CD sales worldwide. What we do provide however is a nurturing and economically sound future for our acts, and have them earning royalties long before others bands do.

We look at ourselves as riding the new wave of the music industry with our completely in-house, energetic and vibrant approach to creating and marketing music. We are also into ongoing and successful relationships with our acts, complimenting their musical and marketing infrastructure rather than taking it over like our major label counterparts. At Flashpoint it's all about sensible business combined with total creativity and the music!

 

 

 
   
   
 
 
 

Originally set-up to administer Harry Vanda's sizable collection of songwriting, Flashpoint publishing has grown to represent other writers including British India Louise Anton, Katarina Boskovic and We Are Grace.

The growth and strategic planning of the publishing area is being overseen by Fifa Riccobono, an Australian music veteran and former board member of APRA. Fifa's vast experience in publishing and recording will be pivotal for the companies new initiatives in the coming years.

The ethos of Flashpoint publishing is 'quality over quantity', keeping the number of artists small so that we can give individual attention to each one.
