Based in Michigan (USA), we are producers/distributors of traditional Armenian and Middle Eastern music. Traditional and cultural elements include the use of instruments indigenous to the countries of Armenia, Greece, Bulgaria, the Middle East and the Near East. Instruments such as kanun (laptop harp), oud (pear shape lute), duduk (flute) cumbus (banjo), dumbeg (hand drum) to name a few. Bringing world music to a higher level for the masses.

Many artists represented on the American Recording Productions label range from Armenian virtuoso's Mal Barsamian and oudist George Mgrdichian to Greek clarinetists Vasilios Saleas and Jim Dimitri Stoynoff. The record label is lead by an Armenian musician, Ara Topouzian, a kanun player, with award winning releases which have been featured in motion pictures, stage performances, and commercials.

American Recording Productions music is distributed in major retail stores worldwide as well as digital downloads through iTunes, Rhapsody to name a few.
