No Labels

hosted by WNYU DJs

2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

No Labels provides a deep dive into the oeuvre of a taste-making record label, highlighting its artists, sound, and the vibe that makes it distinctive. What makes the sound of 4AD or Dischord or Sun Records? Why have certain labels been so influential? We seek to showcase lesser known labels (and artists), with the aim of curating an historical, eclectic and truly global selection of sounds. Come to No Labels to get immersed in a featured label’s soundscape, scene, and story through a selection of songs interwoven with brief commentary.
