It's simple, we are the underground musician’s independent distributor.

What we want to do is help artists that we personally respect to get their music out to more people in a way that benefits them. They keep all the rights and creative content of their release, while Codex Rag takes care of all the CD and digital distribution they desire. The artist doesn't ever have to pay a thing, we run the Codex Rag online mail-orders and the artist gets paid quarterly. Codex Rag was launched in 2015 by two friends who met in Upstate New York's DIY music community and later ended up attending the same university. Both founders have been in bands for years, now well aware that musicians perform best when they do not have to worry about all the little things outside of the creative process.
