What Is a Netlabel?
A netlabel is an online record label that distributes its music primarily through digital audio formats (mainly mp3s). Although similar to traditional record labels in many respects, netlabels typically emphasize free distribution online, often under licenses that encourage works to be shared and artists usually retain copyright.
Our netlabel is historical as the world's very first netlabel devoted to children. We provide kids with music, audio books, stories, art and printable toys -- all for free.

Imagine It Might Sound Like This!

Why is so much children's music limited to single guitar folk songs? Kids, just like the rest of us, are into all sorts of sounds.
This short mix features excerpts from music and stories that kids enjoy. The scope is wide, and we hope this netlabel will offer kids a full spectrum of musical styles and audio books. |
22 minutes of excerpts of fun sounds and stories
