IPB Records is the premier artist collaboration company of Western Massachusetts. Our goal is to provide high quality work for and with our clients without emptying the pockets of small indie bands. We offer all services from marketing to distribution while trying to keep things affordable.
We are a team composed fully of musicians and industry professionals who aim to work for you. We understand how hard it is to be a small band with few connections and want to support our clients to be as successful as possible.
Services
Design and Marketing
We offer high quality graphic design work for all purposes. Our team is proficient in several different photo editing programs to make logos, album covers, social media posts, flyers, and web design. The goal of our graphic design team is to provide work that looks nice and effectively achieves its purpose for a low cost.
The majority of these products have rapid turnaround and will include a limited number of redesigns or alternate variations, though only one final product will be provided. Web design is a much more collaborative process and may require additional fees based on needs.
It is so easy in this age to turn to generative AI to save money. Here at IPB Records, we do not make use of this type of software as part of our effort to keep things human.
Recording
We are in the late stages of renovating CheeseBoy Studios to open later this year. Since we are all musicians, we are taking the utmost care into ensuring that we have a space that is both functional for recording, but also welcoming and well maintained to ensure that you and your instruments will have a good time.
As an extension of our recording program, we also offer mixing and mastering services. Basic steps of these processes will be included in the tracking of music, but extra fees apply for full complete mastering either through our team or our recommended partners.
We aim to avoid influencing your sessions with our ideas and opinions, unless it is agreed upon in advance for our engineers to provide production advice or basic session takes.
Distribution
Once we have your music recorded and mastered, we are also prepped to assist you in the distribution and production of your release. We have connections through several streaming and physical media platforms to distribute in any method you see fit for your music. Fees and pricing are subject to change based on current market values.
Full Management
If you are interested in all of the services we provide, as well as booking management and website maintenance, we may consider a contract as a full signed label. Pricing and profit share for this service will be assigned on a case-by-case basis based on overall profit and individual circumstances.
More Services coming soon
Please keep an eye out for more services that we plan to introduce over the next few months
