Higher Octave
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Higher Octave was an independent record label that specializes in a wide variety of uplifting music, including smooth jazz, Latin music and world music. It helped bring "nouveau flamenco" to the world by releasing guitarist Ottmar Liebert's debut LP in 1989.
Acquired by EMI, Higher Octave was merged with Narada Productions in 2003 and put under control of Virgin Records.
Until 2003, Higher Octave was based in Malibu, California. It now shares Narada's headquarters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
