 In December 2007, Chris Burnett, along with New York-based artists, Erica Lindsay and Sumi Tonooka, co-founded Artists Recording Collective – an internationally recognized brand that serves as a dynamic and multi-dimensional platform to present the works and services of a select roster of artists-producers and boutique labels.Subsequently, Artists Recording Collective formally launched its first commercial CD recording release in early 2008 to critical acclaim and National Radio Chart success.Based upon his innovative approach to promotion and marketing, Burnett was contacted by telephone and the Artists Recording Collective was featured in a Down Beat magazine article by writer, Yoshi Kato.
