The executives are dedicating their skills to the genre’s roots and releasing music that reflects electronic music.

The new label under Warner Records is already making a mark on the scene. ‘Church,’ PARISI’s EP with Buy Now, offers a fresh, chill take on electro house with synths, harmonizations, and chimes scattered on the progressive melody. With strong artists already being signed, the future is bright and ever-expanding.
