From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aozora Records (青空, Blue Sky Records) is a Japanese record company owned by Clear Sky Corporation. It was established on May 3, 2000, to handle the independent release of Hitomi Yaida's debut maxi CD Howling in the Kansai area of Japan. It was the subject of a bidding war amongst the larger recording companies for distribution rights, which were won by Toshiba-EMI.
