Streaming pays fractions of a cent. A CD or record in a fan's hands pays you — and they keep it forever. Colombia Records & Tapes presses professional CDs and vinyl for independent artists, with the design studio and AI cover art included.
A playlist can't be signed. A stream can't sit on a shelf.
A physical record is a keepsake — something to hold, frame, and treasure long after the algorithm moves on. It turns listeners into lifelong fans.
The merch table is real income. A $15 CD or $30 record sold at a gig beats months of streaming pennies. Sign it, sell it, profit from it.
Radio, press, playlisters and labels still respect a finished physical release. It says you're a professional — not just another upload.
One studio, one team — from your audio file to a finished, shrink-wrapped release.
Retail-ready CDs in jewel cases or jackets — full-colour covers, spines, inside tray cards and disc print.
12″ and 7″ pressings with custom circular centre labels and printed front & back jackets.
