Creative, Honest, Positive

World Around Records is an international collective of artists and techno-mystics that assembled for the purpose of gaining a stronger foothold in the independent music scene. We’re dedicated to electronic and hip hop music that’s experimental, intelligent and speaks truth to power. We’re also into stuff that’s just plain dope.

Our day-to-day operations are handled by a small group of elite operatives: founder Justin Boland is on the publicity frontlines, co-founder Kyle Tierce oversees most of the aesthetic and design details, general manager Mitch Pond does all kinds of stuff (often involving our Midwest artists), and our newest material is usually mixed by our in-house ninjaneer, Nick Williams.

Our righteous website was designed by Detroit multimedia artist Gomar2 and built by Charles Choiniere of BackBrain Media.
