Recoup 'n' Roll: Music Industry Simulator

Record label management

Recoup 'n' Roll: Music Industry Simulator is a text-first strategy sim for PC about running a record label. You can start as an employee or build a label from nothing. You scout and sign artists, form bands, develop their skills, fame, and scene credibility, then fund recording sessions and release music on streaming services and radio.

The business runs week to week. You manage recording costs, advances, salaries, and debt while negotiating royalties and recoupment terms. Artists can have clashing egos, band chemistry can change, and groups can break up or change members.
