Aozora Records (青空 Blue Sky Records ) is a Japanese record company owned by Clear Sky Corporation. Established May 3 2000 to handle the independent release of Hitomi Yaida's debut maxi CD Howling to the Kansai area of Japan, it was the recipient of a bidding war amongst the larger Recording Companies for distribution rights which was won by Toshiba-EMI.
The distribution contract with Toshiba-EMI was cancelled in September 2005,[1] with Avex Marketing Communications winning the new rights.[2]
