Welcome to Wise 'Trip' Records?, LLC — owned and operated by founding music producer Matthew L. Morgan (WiseFromWithin?). We are a socially conscientious company that strives to:
1) Make a positive, global impact on the lives of others through promoting further development of: (a) music education programs for the impoverished and otherwise disadvantaged. (b) clinically-administered music therapy programs for those suffering from any form of mental illness, disorder, or neurological trauma.
2) Provide new and experienced music artists a conduit through which to use their creativity and passion to achieve success while making a positive impact on others, both through their music and by being an integral part of helping non-profit music education and therapy programs achieve funding because 25% of the company's profits go directly to such programs.
Putting the label's artists first when business decisions are made, releasing music that elevates listeners' consciousness and emotional wellbeing, as well as fostering broader recognition and appreciation throughout society concerning the very real and powerful therapeutic qualities of music listening and performing, are our priorities.
We specialize in Electronic(a) Music genres (including EDM/dance, synth/electro-pop, acid/club jazz, ambient, industrial, "space music," etc.), although we also have studio recording and production experience with Alternative Music genres. We provide music artists a comprehensive, "start-to-finish" suite of services, including secondary production and mastering, collaborative artist development consulting (that retains the artist's unique stylistic identity and creative independence), copyright & trademark assistance, as well as promotion & music publication services.
Wise 'Trip' Records provides all its services at no upfront cost to the music artist that signs with the label. We assume the risks associated with the costs of our services and do not pass on those expenses to the artist at any point. In exchange, we negotiate a royalty rate on sales revenue the artist generates from their published music that is genuinely fair to both parties given this model is much simpler, straightforward, and beneficial for the artist compared to the traditional, grossly-lopsided relationship most record labels tend to impose. Forming strongly supportive and caring relationships with musicians is far more important to us than maximizing profit -- we see that priority as critical to helping restore humanity and decency to the music industry, and is ultimately a superior approach to achieving long-term growth.
Every step of the way, this label will choose the paths that allow it to respect the talent and dignity of its artists, as well as provide a platform for improving society through the way it supports the proliferation of music and the art of music itself, and to emotionally engage and inspire people everywhere.... Wise 'Trip' Records? is a certified veteran-owned business providing production,mastering,artist development,promotion,and publication services,while directly supporting music education and music therapy programs for the disadvantaged.
