INDIEREPUBLIK RECORDS
For us at indieRepublik it was never really a question. At some point, after finding and featuring hundreds if not thousands of artists, we were destined to set up our own label to push the artists we love most from all those we come into contact with.

We’re open to and actively looking for great bands and solo artists for our new label. Doesn’t matter the genre, doesn’t matter if you’re not in your 20s. Hit us up, we’d love to hear from you and promise you an honest reply.

manifesto
who we are. what we think. why you should join us.
“This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often. If you don’t like your job, quit. If you don’t have enough time, stop watching TV. If you are looking for the love of your life, stop; they will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love. Stop over analyzing, life is simple. All emotions are beautiful. When you eat, appreciate every last bite. Open your mind, arms, and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. Ask the next person you see what their passion is, and share your inspiring dream with them. Travel often; getting lost will help you find yourself. Some opportunities only come once, seize them. Life is about the people you meet, and the things you create with them so go out and start creating. Life is short. Live your dream and share your passion.”
– The Holstee Manifesto.
Until we finish our own, this one works pretty well as a placeholder 🙂
