Indies Scope (former Indies Records), have been in the music market since 1990. Label Indies Records have focused on supporting original Czech top-quality music production since they were established. They had released over 400 albums with 20 albums released every year. The quality of the production is the most essential requirement in selecting the released interprets. Consequently, Indies Scope can boast a number of awards every year, including the most prestigious ones. For example, “Traband†and “Tara Fuki†were awarded with the most prestigious Anděl 2007 award in 2007 (Czech analogy of the Grammy). Their albums were regarded highly by the professional jury as the best ones in the Folk&Country and Worldmusic specified genres. Among the most famous further interprets who managed to break through the Czech border and who keep releasing with Indies Scope are Iva Bittová, Gipsy.cz, Hradistan, 100C, Cankisou, Tomas Kocko, Yellow Sisters and many others.
Every month one album free from Indies Scope
The Indies Scope label comes up with an attractive offer on its Internet pages www.indies.eu, where whole albums can be downloaded in mp3 format completely free of charge. This is the so called the Music History Box (in the left-hand side of the website homepage), in which one album from the Indies Scope catalogue appears every month.
Indies Scope decided to reward all friends of good music with an offer of one album free to download every month. Obviously, they will start with ever first album released with label in 1990. It is a Steak! rock album of the legendary Meat-House Chicago I.R.A. hardcore band. Label will continue to release later albums, however, there is a number of bands from the 1990..s, so this is where the “Music History Box†was derived from.
Music friends will now have the opportunity to explore the independent Czech music from the years after the collapse of the communist regime. Indies Records managed to extend their catalogue with further genres very quickly without getting stuck to independent rock music only. The same applies to the soundtrack quality which has fabulously increased compared to that of the Steak! album. Unfortunately, the first albums suffered from really poor experience of producers or lack of recording studios in the post-communist period of the Czech Republic. However, it was obvious since the first albums, that label has been focusing on quality and support of author..s production. Listeners can look forward to “Rany telaâ€, “Narajamaâ€, “Hereâ€, “Dybbukâ€, “Jolly Jokerâ€, “Bez periâ€, “Slutâ€, “Cymbelinâ€, etc..
