This article is part of the Island Records research wiki at offset.skew.org.

Following is how Island labels are accounted for in Discogs (as of 2006-05-27). It has a number of problems, most notably the strange sublabels of Island Records (US), most likely from when "Island Records" was renamed to "Island Records (US)":

  • Universal Music Group
    • Universal Island Records
    • Universal Music (UK)
      • Island Records (UK)
        • 4th & Broadway
        • Al's Records
        • Apollo Recordings
        • Blue (Island)
        • Black Swan
        • Blunted
        • Boogie Food - not yet confirmed to be a sublabel of Island - mjb
        • Island Jamaica
          • Island Jamaica Jazz
        • Island Masters
        • Mango Records
        • Sense
        • Trade 2
        • Tuxedo Music Ltd. - not yet confirmed to be a sublabel of Island - mjb
    • Universal Music (Germany)
      • Island Mercury Labelgroup
      • Polydor Island Group
      • Universal Music Domestic Division
    • Island Def Jam Music Group
      • Island Records (US)
        • Island Records (Australia)
        • Island Records (Canada)
        • Island Records (France)
        • Island Records (Germany)
        • 4th & Broadway (US)
        • Axiom
        • Dancin' Music
        • Great Jones
        • Island Black Music
  • Island Records (Netherlands)
  • Island Records (Portugal) - see note about Dacapo below
  • Island Records (Italy)
  • Island Records - does not exist in Discogs
    • Island Records (Japan) - updated submitted to move it under Island Records (US) for now - mjb

In addition, Island-branded records are filed under

  • Dacapo - I'm trying to push for getting Island-branded Portuguese releases listed under both Dacapo and Island Records (Portugal) - mjb
  • Festival Records - Kind of an odd duck in that Island branding takes a backseat - mjb
  • Phonogram GmbH
  • Phonogram (France)
  • BMG
    • Ariola (Germany)
    • BMG Ariola München GmbH (and perhaps other Ariola divisions listed on the BMG page)
  • PolyGram (and various divisions listed on that page)

We need to figure out better ways of organizing things.
