Musico

Musico Records was founded in 1975 by producer and entrepreneur Alex Rivera in Los Angeles, California. Initially focused on rock and pop, the label gained prominence in the late 1970s and 1980s by signing influential artists such as The Electric Souls and indie rock band The Echoes. During this era, Musico expanded its roster to include genres like punk, new wave, and alternative rock, becoming a key player in the underground music scene. In the 1990s, Musico diversified into hip-hop and R&B, launching the careers of artists like MC Lyric and Soul Harmony. The label's commitment to artistic integrity and innovation helped it maintain relevance through the digital revolution of the 2000s, adapting to new distribution methods. Today, Musico is recognized for its eclectic catalog and contribution to the evolution of various music genres, leaving a lasting legacy in the independent music community.
