Gold Robot Records is an Oakland-based boutique vinyl record label, formed in 2007 and specializing in vinyl and digital releases.[1][2] The label has both acted as a platform to launch the careers of burgeoning artists and release small vinyl runs for established names, including Will Oldham (a.k.a. Bonnie "Prince" Billie).[3] To date, Gold Robot Records has issued 38 vinyl releases (including one compilation) and 20 digital releases, as well as releasing free music and remixes from its catalog of artists.[4]
