Hot take
Integral, the music services arm of [PIAS], delivers a robust suite of artist marketing, distribution, and sales solutions with over three decades in the game. Their blend of digital and physical expertise, local market knowledge, and global infrastructure stands out, giving artists and labels a real shot at targeted audience growth. The centralized digital supply chain and fast store setup are creator-friendly, while initiatives like Record Store Day signal genuine support for independent music. That said, their strength as a distributor tied to a large organization can sometimes feel a bit old-school, with a strong focus on established processes that may not always cater to the most agile or DIY needs. Still, their transparency, access to detailed analytics, and personalized strategic support make them a valuable ally for artists looking to scale up.
