Tech Avenue Records
Founded in September 2019, Peter Elmeri (aka Stu) started Tech Avenue with the purpose of providing up and coming artists with a platform to be heard. Being a new producer himself, he learned first hand the biggest difficulties that presented themselves throughout the music creation process. Sound engineering, marketing, and distribution were among the few hurdles to navigate through.
Our biggest inspiration at Tech Avenue Records is the artist, and the integral role they play in delivering quality music to listeners. We want to enable producers to focus on what they do best, which is create music. Tech Avenue offers a wide array of services to artists that guide artists through roadblocks in the music making process, as well as a platform to which some of the biggest Techno House event organizers can connect to.
Tech Avenue's vision is simple; to grant new artists the opportunity to grow their career in music production. Quality and experience are at the heart of everything we do, allowing us to take pride in showcasing our artists. Ultimately, Tech Avenue consists of a team that shares a common passion for music, and exchanging ideas on how we can best help others overcome barriers to exposure. Close cohesive relationships with distributors and event managers make us exceedingly well versed in artist development, promotion and marketing.
We would love to hear your sound, email us your demo submission.
