Point Blank Recordings

Our record label is here to help you achieve your ambitions

As a Point Blank student, you get the chance to plug into the School’s connections to the music industry - including our very own record label. So, if you’re an aspiring artist looking to get your music in front of the right people and heard by the world, look no further than Point Blank’s in-house imprint, Point Blank Recordings (PBR). If you are one of our students, go ahead and send your tracks here

Extensive Industry Connections

Many of our graduates have releases under their belts with PBR and a steadily growing roster of upcoming and legendary artists are teaming up with our students on an ongoing basis. Making waves online and in the streaming world, PBR’s releases have racked up 4 million streams on Spotify alone in the past year and, as a student, you will be able to tap into this unique offering.

 

Using our extensive industry connections, we’ve been able to link our talented students up with some of the most influential artists in the world. Our recent singles are a testament to this, seeing PBR and our students release music with Ultra Naté, Kym Mazelle along with a lock in from the legendary Kathy Sledge. As well as releasing our own tracks, we’ve sub-licensed PBR music to the mighty BMG (major label), had one of our releases feature in the highly anticipated film People Just Do Nothing: Big In Japan and received continued support from national and global radio stations.

 

"Starting off 2022 with an amazing collection of mixes coming out on my 'Supernatural' single with Funk Cartel, is a defining moment in yet another chapter of my 30+ years career. Collaborating with remixers that approached 'Supernatural' with so much authenticity and love for the song and the culture was a dream. I know people will enjoy hearing these out loud, in playlists, mix shows and on dance floors for a long time and personally, I will be programming the 'Supernatural' remixes in my own DJ sets!”  - Ultra Naté 

 

Our students are making music through our label

Kwame Kwaten

Many of these triumphs and stellar student opportunities are ignited and nurtured by our very own Director of A&R at PBR and resident Student Advisor, Kwame Kwaten. He’s thrived as an artist, had a #1 in the dance chart with his band D’Influence, shortlisted for a Mercury Prize and supported the likes of Michael Jackson, Prince and James Brown. Now Vice-Chair of the MMF (Music Managers Forum), a BRIT Trust trustee and a MOBO Awards selector, Kwame is constantly sourcing and creating new and exciting opportunities for our students through his priceless contacts and inspiring 1-2-1 sessions.

The label is part and parcel of the student offering at Point Blank. If you can make music – we want to hear it and amplify your opportunities. We also have internships to help you understand the business with the real professionals in the music world. Not many music schools have their own label - we do - so apply today and reap the benefits of joining an industry-focused institution that will get you heard.

Licensing & Sync

Students at Point Blank Music Schools also have the opportunity to earn money from their music via our licensing and sync connections. Through partner agencies, PB alumni have soundtracked worldwide advertising campaigns as well as gone on to score feature films. Watch PB graduates Jake Warren and Eddie Yanez's European MTV Swatch campaigns below. You can also watch an interview with Jake Warren on how PB kick-started his career.

Sanchit Balhara studied Music Production at our London school and has since gone on to score seven feature films and over 100 commercials! He recently scored one of India's highest-grossing films, 'Bajirao Mastani'. Sanchit had high praise when reflecting on his time at PB: "In my opinion, Point Blank is one institute that focuses not only on the creative part of music but the business aspect as well."
