Terrance Damian (Terrance D. Schemansky) started "3000 Records" (record company) back in 1996. At that time he was busy singing in a college rock band, and also a student at Western Michigan University. The record label is not simply about big money, or exclusive contracts. This doesn't mean that the label is against these things. Money is nice, and sometimes exclusive contracts are necessary. Mostly, we help Bands and Solo Artists gain recognition they deserve through our promotional services.
The first Co-Op CD was put together in Kalamazoo, MI with flyers and word of mouth. Terrance says, "Actually, after losing a promised spot on a compilation (Co-Op), I decided to start up my own." The first Co-Op was a real struggle, and he says it's still not easy, but it is still rewarding. Here it is 10 years later, and Bands and Solo Artists from around the world are gaining recognition with 3000 Records.

A good definition of 3000 Records is "an organization that operates as a independent record company and offers Music Promotion Services to other labels and independent Musicians" At this time 3000 Records mostly releases Co-Op CDs. The CDs are used as a promotional tool to reach college radio, independent radio, international radio, satellite radio, internet radio, and magazines, along with other creative avenues of music promotion. We currently offer two music promotion services called "Indie 360" and "CD Register". With these services, we give Bands and Solo Artists exposure to the masses. This is done by building connections with music industry contacts and offering this label as a service for musicians and by musicians. We believe in dreams becoming reality, and making that happen with hard work and dedication.
