You're right as usual Magic! As of June 2020 the label is now called "One Little Independent Records" due to the fact that word "Indian" is offensive. I find it offensive that these "so called" independent labels are in fact just a small boutique hidden away in the dark corners of the global music super stores owned and operated by the major music corporations. They are nothing without the distribution and sales networks of the majors.
So, I propose we refrain from calling labels such as this independent labels as this is in fact the opposite of what they really are. Perhaps we could change their moniker to "reliant labels", "interdependent labels" or my favourite in the new name stakes "enslaved labels".
You might think that this is political correctness gone too far but these independents have been hiding behind the skirts and up the sleeves of the majors all along and I feel duped. A realistic re-branding would put an end to their false and misleading claims of independence.
