About

Company Profile

Quality music. That was the one goal that Joshua Kamen and Ariel Borujow had in mind when they formed Imprint One80 in 2011. While the Internet has turned the music business on its head, eliminating the traditional barriers to entry and oversaturating the market with overnight stars, one thing has often been lost in the shuffle: quality. Imprint One80 isn’t a company. It’s an idea. An idea that a record label can embrace all facets of new technology, and at the same time, do the exact opposite of what everyone else is doing.

We invest in artist development.

We handle all recording, mixing and mastering in-house.

We provide a full-range of services, including management and marketing.

We are Imprint One80.
