Entering the Current

how this space works

By visiting this site, you enter a space that exists to support music, artists, and the act of listening. These terms describe how that space works and what it asks of those who enter it. They are not designed to restrict your experience — they are designed to protect the work held here.

This site is operated by Refractive River Records. Access to and use of this site is conditioned on your acceptance of these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Intellectual Property

what belongs to the current

All content on this site — text, imagery, audio, visual design, artist bios, editorial writing, and the recordings made available for preview — is the property of Refractive River Records and its artists. It is protected under applicable copyright and intellectual property law.

You may share links to this site freely. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, or commercially exploit any content from this site without written permission from the label.

Your Conduct

what we ask of you

This is a space built for music and the people who make and love it. We ask that you engage with it in that spirit — with curiosity, with care, and without intent to disrupt, extract, or manipulate.

Automated scraping, data harvesting, or any attempt to exploit this site's content or infrastructure for commercial purposes is prohibited. Any contact made through this site should be genuine and respectful.

External Links

This site contains links to external streaming platforms and other third-party destinations. Refractive River Records is not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of those platforms. We recommend reviewing their terms independently before engaging with their services.

Changes

as things evolve

These terms may be updated at any time without prior notice. Continued use of the site after any revision constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. We will always aim for clarity over legalese.
