A recording contract, or record deal, is a legal agreement between a record label like Programmatic Flying Records, and an artist.

• The ‘deal’ happens when the artist makes a record for the label to sell and promote.
• Most labels have an 80/20 or 60/40 split with the artist; where the label gets the most.
• Because we’re not-for-profit, we always make sure that our record deal is the best value for everyone involved.
• Our record deal is standard for all of our artists, and it’s fair.
• Our contract has been designed for readability, so we’ve tried to create an easy to understand record deal.
• However, if there are any terms you need help understanding, we’ll get an impartial mentor to explain them to you.

At Programmatic Flying, anything we offer is usually at mutual benefit. We’re open, transparent and fair, and all of our profits get reinvested back into providing our services. Running a record label is surprisingly expensive, which is why we need good artists to help us keep afloat.
