TEXAS NOISE MERCHANTS

About Me

Arclight Records is a small independent record label based out of Austin, TX whose main agenda is to get records that we love out into the public sphere, to get our artists heard by those who would typically never get the chance, and to maintain high standards of honesty and integrity in an industry where those traits are harder and harder to find as each day passes. Though not a large operation, we've managed to release a wide variety of records since the label's inception in 2003. Many of our bands are based out of the Lone Star State, though not all, and the label's diverse roster is tied together by the philosophy that its music is made out of love, and not out of a lust for fame or fortune. So far, we've had the honor of working with so many excellent bands (friends!), from Freshkills' stark post-punk to Tia Carrera's unbridled stoner-rock to the alt-country of Phonograph, and many, many more.
