Star 69 Records
Ok, seriously this is BIG NEWS! I have been waiting for a Star 69 Records Podcast for YEARS. I searched for it just now and there it was episode one. It you dont know, Star 69 is the record label that has amazing artists like Peter Rauhofer, Offer Nissim, and many many more.
By far my favorite record label and I am just thrilled that they have a podcast now. :)
This has been the best musical days that I have had in a long time. There is so much music and not enough time to listen to it. So please do me a favor and download some of these podcasts and help me listen to it. :p
Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.
