Consulting · with the founder

A plan,
not a pep talk.

Our CEO Vitalii Babii (Spartaque) runs the group’s fourteen labels and the software behind them, and has spent twenty years on both sides of the booth. A session is how you borrow that for an hour: what to do with the next release, where the money should go, what to stop paying for. No promises about outcomes; those depend on you.

Where you areA release ahead and a dozen opinions about what to do with itMoney going to whatever was advertised lastTwenty tabs open, none of them yours
Where you end upOne plan, written down, with the order of things and the reasonsMoney going where it moves a record like yours, and a list of what to stop paying forThe tools we use ourselves, and which of them you actually need
Before you payWatch the seriesEvery week our own money goes behind one record and the invoices go on camera. Most sessions start with a question the series has already answered.

Budget is zeroSend a demoMusic and no money is how most of our artists arrived. A label deal puts our budget and our machine behind the record; you pay nothing up front.

You run a labelPut it on our systemReleases on time, promo out, royalties paid, reports that make sense, on the machine that runs fourteen labels. You keep the A&R and get your evenings back.

  • A video call with Spartaque, recorded
  • Your next twelve months: releases, promo, spend, and what to stop paying for
  • A written plan the next day, yours whether or not you continue
  • A second pair of eyes on the plan when you start executing it
the plan stays yours either way

The five questions we start from

01What does the next twelve months have to look like for you?
02How do you release now: own label, other labels, how often?
03What is the budget, and for how long?
04What have you tried, and why did it stop?
05Where does it hurt most right now?
What it costs

Thirty minutes, 150 EUR. Ninety minutes with the written plan, 350 EUR, credited in full against any agency package or label management within 30 days: the session is the first step, not a separate bill.
