We are a perpetual beta shop (meaning Web 2.0 and all that stuff), essentially. Don't let the whole "record company" thing fool you. We didn't rootkit our CD's!

It is a full time position, with benefits. Salary is commensurate with experience. We are located in the heart of Burbank, CA’s media-hub near NBC, ABC, Warner Bros. Studio and Disney.
