Our Label
We are looking for talented new artists who want to improve their sound and become part the music industry.
Streaming platforms like Spotify typically generate only limited income for most artists. That’s why we focus on building additional and more sustainable revenue streams together with our artists.
With Really Nice Records you get access to:
• Full production support (music production, recording, mixing & mastering)
• Professional plugin-based mastering by an experienced mastering engineer is included for released projects, with optional analog mastering available as an upgrade service
• Cover art
• Music distribution (digital + physical releases)
• Sync licensing opportunities
• Merchandise production and full store integration, including placement on your Spotify artist page
• Marketing support tailored to your release and audience
• Monthly transparent sales reporting and payouts
• Referral earnings for bringing new clients or artists to the label
• Optional label financing for selected projects
All of the above services are included as part of the release setup and are not charged separately beyond the standard release fee.
Our model is simple: you pay a one-time release fee of €24.99 per single (or €79.00 per album), and the label retains a 33% share of generated revenue from music, merch, and related releases. There are no additional monthly service fees.
Our goal is not just streaming numbers, but building real artist income through multiple channels such as merch, physical releases, licensing, and long-term catalog growth.

About ReallyNiceRecords
I’m a Music Producer and Audio Engineer, and since my time at SAE, I’ve been passionate about using tools to enhance not just the sound quality of music but also the emotions a song conveys. That’s why I started ReallyNiceRecords—first just for friends, but it quickly grew into a full-time focus.
Our label is built for artists who want to stay independent, maintain full control over their music and branding, but still get industry-level sound quality without compromises.
What We Offer
At ReallyNiceRecords, we do things differently:
✅ Artists Keep at least 67% of Their Earnings – Our cut only applies to revenue made through us, not everything you do.
✅ No Strings Attached – You’re free to collaborate with other labels and artists, no need for clearance.
✅ Flexible Contracts – Cancel anytime with just three months’ notice (as long as everything is paid off).
✅ Touring on Your Terms – We’ll look for venues for you, but you always have the final say.
✅ You Keep Your Rights – We only retain Master and Sync Rights for the duration of the contract.
✅ Marketing Costs Are on Us – Any marketing campaigns we create come from our share, not yours.
✅ Mastering included for your releases with us.
