P572 (prononced P-five-seven-two) is a Canadian independent record label founded in 2004 in Quebec City by Sam Murdock and Sébastien Leduc.
To date, the label has released about a hundred albums including The Singularity, Phase I & II by Thisquietarmy (Eric Quach) and Away (Michel Langevin), 3/4 and Prospare by Arthur Comeau (Radio Radio), Songs for Harmonium and Drum Machine by Darren Hayman, Les années Monsieur by Keith Kouna, Désolé mouvement geste by Navet Confit as well as two books and several fanzines. Since 2012, several albums by the group Les Goules and Alaclair Ensemble as well as Darlène by Hubert Lenoir have been reissued on vinyl in limited and numbered editions.
A France-Quebec collaboration has resulted in several co-releases with five French labels: Cattule & Ramón, Platinum Records, À tant rêver du roi, Club Teckel and Renegat Records. In Canada, some projects have been co-produced with the following record labels: 7e ciel, Simone Records, Label Obscura and Mutefakemusic.
In addition to his activities with P572, Sam Murdock works with Gabriel Pelletier (graphic designer) on the design of visuals for several artists (Jérôme 50, Claude Bégin, Paule-Andrée Cassidy, Kid Kouna, etc.) under the name Team Pochette. The duo won two Félix for the cover of the year with Alaclair Ensemble in 2017 and Koriass in 2019 at ADISQ.
The name P572 refers to Productions and the address where the label was founded: 572 rue Horatio-Nelson, quartier St-Roch, Québec. [1][2]
