Madstop Records
About Madstop
Madstop Records is a not-for-profit record label that places emphasis on supporting the music community and educating its members on practices of the music industry. We are comprised entirely of an ambitious group of Upstate New York College students, under the guidance of Music Business Department Chair, Carol Britt. Many of the members are pursuing degrees in Music and Business. We support the burgeoning local music scene by producing live events, promoting music and recording music artists. In the endeavors, our members mentor each other, do research on industry methods and get hands on experience running a music label.
Organizational Goals
We are always looking for new artists to join us in sharing the music. If you are an artist interested in recording tracks for a compilation/EP, produce a full album, or put on a concert, our members are here to help you.

- Audio Engineering/Sound

- Artist Relations
- Contract Negotiations
- Internet/Computing Technology
- Leadership
- Group Work
