Establishment

In September 2003, having quit her former label, World Music Singer Suzy established 'Primary Music' as an independent label.Her goal was to create a personal label that can promote her music according to her own artistic perception.

World Music and Primary Music

World Music is the ideological and traditional music of ethnic groups that sing in their native tongue. Its uniqueness is formed through preservation of the culture and the past, while creating something new.Lately, this musical genre is becoming more and more popular, giving listeners the chance to really explore foreign cultures, by means they can always relate to - music.World Music from Israel has become a first class national treasure, gathering enormous popularity amongst the world public thirsty for new, unique and original voices.The name 'Primary Music' comes from the belief that a man's primal basis, is his culture. Primary Music aims to introduce these different cultures through its artists. Primary Music's Artists are joined together for promoting ideas of preservation aside along with innovation.

Israel as a great nation for World Music

Israel, a melting pot for over 70 cultures, traditions and languages, some going back to the dawn of human culture, is an inexhaustible source for World Music, which is developed quite impressively while taking a place of honor on local stages.Many nations are curious about foreign cultures, and therefore there is an open ear worldwide for these artists, and not only locally.This almost impossible mixture within the Israeli society, gives birth to special, innovative creations, due to their being both origin-saturated and original.

Working ethics as an independent label

Inside Israel, Primary Music's records are being distributed through 'Helicon' (One of the three majors in Israel besides 'Hed Arzi' and 'NMC'), and worldwide- using through digital and physical means.The label encourages a flourishing cooperation with other labels, music companies and artists from across the world; among them are Pasion Turca, Atoll Music, Arc Music, Clubstar GMBH and EMI Music Publishing.Primary Music's albums are distributed all over the world, while songs and tracks from the label's Repertoire are being offered for licensing and therefore appear in many World Music compilations all over the world.
