Blue Water Records

Legal

Blue Water Records is a privately owned and operated music label. Our goal is to bring great music in great genres to fans who might otherwise never hear our artists.

All of the music available via BWR is copyrighted, with all rights reserved. For most of our catalog, BWR is the world-wide exclusive publisher of our releases. Our releases are available in digital form, in physical form (CD or DVD), or both. We sell copies of our releases both directly from this web site, as well as through the network of channels and stores provided by our distributor, IODA.

Please note:

Any unauthorized distribution of our releases is prohibited by US federal law and international treaty. Please tell your friends about our music but please don't bootleg our work.
Consumers are authorized and encouraged to make backup copies of the copies of our releases that they purchase, and to play their copies on as many devices as desired, so long as the consumer is always present when the release is played or it is played on a device of the consumer's property, and so long as the consumer does not distribute their copy to anyone else nor perform it in a public (as opposed to private) setting.
To the best of our knowledge, all of our releases are free of any third party licensing issues. For example, some of the tracks on some of our releases may include third party samples or libraries, whether as incidental sound fx or as a core part of the music. We insist that our artists obtain proper permission to use any third party products. However, it is many times not possible for us to detect or prevent all possible licensing questions. and both we and our artists are human - meaning we sometimes make mistakes too. If you are a third party and believe we have violated your rights or licensing terms, please contact us immediately and we will work with you to resolve the situation promptly.
We support the notion of freedom of speech, and to that end we place few restrictions upon our artists in terms of the types of content they may include or the message they are trying to communicate. Therefore, BWR is not responsible for the message or content of any of our releases, nor does the message or content necessarily reflect the position of BWR's owners or management.

If you have any questions about our policies or anything in general, please do not hesitate to contact us.
