e're a small, fast-moving team, which means our interns don't fetch coffee. They do real work, learn real skills, and leave with portfolio pieces and industry connections they can actually use.
Why Intern with Us?
Learn the industry from the inside — distribution, releases, artist relations, editorial, marketing
Hands-on projects with your name on them — not busywork
Flexible, remote-friendly scheduling around your classes or day job
Mentorship and direct access to a working label services operation
Recommendation letters & portfolio references when you crush it
