A Pure Analog Record Label
SME Music
New commissions. New recordings. End-to-end analog. From the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra to the groove in the vinyl.
SME Music is a pure analog record label from the makers of SME turntables. Every release is a newly commissioned production — not a reissue — recorded, mixed, cut, and mastered entirely in the analog domain.
Accent heading
Most vinyl pressed today originates from a digital master — a digital file impressed onto an analog medium. The analog chain is broken at the source. SME Music exists to close that loop. SME Music records, mixes, cuts, and masters entirely in the analog domain, with no digital conversion at any stage of the production process.
The result is a record that carries the full, continuous waveform of the original performance from studio microphone to playback groove — preserving the spatial depth, harmonic richness, and dynamic life that define a purely analog recording.
From Recording Session to Living Room
The Complete Analog Chain
SME Music is the logical completion of the Cadence Audio Group's analog ecosystem. SME turntables play the records. Crystal Cable and Siltech carry the signal. Siltech SAGA amplifiers drive the speakers. Spendor and Sphinx Audio reproduce the sound.
Now SME Music creates the source. Cadence Audio Group is the only company in the world that controls the entire analog chain from recording to playback.
