Boutique Dance Label Plastic World Launches

New boutique dance label Plastic World has launched today as the brainchild of Astral People co-owner Vic Edirisinghe and James McInnes, formerly of Future Classic.

Another imprint based on the 'singles club' model, the label will focus on 12-inch vinyl releases from local artists.

Label manager Edirisinghe told theMusic.com.au today that they are focusing on singles initially which they will look to push the releases to international market.

“Our distribution focus will be internationally,” he said, “and I guess the market is a lot bigger over there for the music we intend to push… and hopefully aid them in gaining the interests from bigger labels that are based overseas.”

The label's first release will be from Sydney duo Alba with the double-sided Knokke/Law. It will feature remixed from Detroit names Rick Wade and Jimmy Edgar.

It will be released late May.
