Stones Throw Records Profile

A lot of the best labels are run by people who have seen the music industry from both sides - the perspective of an artist and the perspective of someone running a music related business. Such is the case with Stones Throw Records. Chris Manak, aka Peanut Butter Wolf, knows from experience what it is like to be trapped in a record deal without any creative control and working with a record label that just doesn't get your music, so he makes sure none of his artists have to put up with that. Instead, he only releases music he loves, and he involves his artists in every step of the album release process. A nice little bonus is that he's built one of the most respected indie hip hop labels along the way. Learn more about Stones Throw Records, including the label's demo policy.
