I asked this question once. But I can’t figure out how to watch topics to find it again. Anyway, I’m ready to shop. Project around. What are the currently most active labels? Most of the link on the label list page are dead.

Deadbeat Records is kinda like a modern day Estrus, but more punky. But there is a lot of cool garage, nothing straight surf. I found some incredible garage bands from there like Manic Attracts, Trmrs, and classic Delmonas.

I’d love to see a label that focuses on garage and surf, and all the noise that can come with it!
