Overview

Labelchanson is a French independent record label whose artistic direction is led by Martin Pénet, a collector, journalist and historian of French song known for his books, CDs and regular contributions to France Musique and France Culture. The label issues a collection of French chanson CDs conceived as a heritage and anthology series, dedicated to quality productions. Its editorial approach combines rare and/or previously unreleased sound documents, elaborate restoration using the latest technical advances to restore maximum presence and clarity to original recordings, booklets rich in precise information and often unpublished colour iconography, elegant graphic design, and pleasant-to-handle cardboard packaging such as digipak and digibox. Labelchanson describes this as an artisanal and refined conception of heritage reissue. At the time of the official homepage text, two releases were already available. The label is independent and private, based in France, and operates in the French-language market for archival and reissue recordings.

History

Labelchanson is a French independent record label. Its artistic direction is assured by Martin Pénet, described as a collector, journalist and historian of French song, already known for various publications in the form of books, CDs and other media, as well as regular participation in programmes on France Musique and France Culture. The label presents a new collection of French chanson CDs with a heritage and anthological vocation, dedicated to quality productions. The editorial formula is built around rare and/or previously unreleased sound documents, elaborate restoration benefiting from the latest technical progress to restore maximum presence and clarity to the original recordings, booklets rich in precise information and often unpublished colour iconography, elegant graphic design to highlight the content, and pleasant-to-handle cardboard packaging such as digipak and digibox. Labelchanson characterises this as an artisanal and above all refined conception of heritage reissue. According to the official homepage, two releases were already available at that time. The label is independent and private, based in France, and its output is aimed at the French-language heritage reissue market.
