History
Music Website was founded in 2023 by music manager Chris Burden and producer Jordan Stern in New York City. The label emerged as an independent, internet-era record label and creative lifestyle brand, aiming to champion fresh, genre-blurring electronic-alternative music. From its inception, Music Website distinguished itself by merging elements of indie electronic, synth-pop, dream pop, shoegaze, and experimental club sounds, and by prioritizing physical media releases alongside digital formats. The label quickly built a roster of artists including Pearly Drops, Couch Prints, sunnbrella, Tapeworms, Vitesse X, DV-i, xJermsx, Swordes, DJ CAMGIRL, and Pictureplane. Its catalog features releases on 12" vinyl, CD, cassette, MiniDisc, and digital, appealing to collectors and underground music enthusiasts. Music Website also operates as a lifestyle brand, offering apparel, merchandise, and curated events that foster a forward-thinking community both online and offline. In early 2025, the label organized "Music Website 2," a live event at Night Club 101 in New York featuring Vitesse X, Swordes, and Pictureplane (DJ). It also promoted Vitesse X's "This Infinite" West Coast 2025 tour with death's dynamic shroud, and Swordes' European dates in Paris and Switzerland. The label's online store ships globally, with domestic US handling typically within 1–3 business days via USPS Media Mail or Ground Advantage, and international orders fulfilled through a global warehouse.
