BLANK LABEL
Blank Label was created based on a philosophy that branding is everything. Whether you’re a Fortune 500 company or an aspiring musician, a strong identity will take your talent to the next level. Andrew de Leon, a former Wall Street analyst turned entrepreneur founded Blank Label after consulting many of his friends who were artists for fun. In the fall of 2009, Blank Label, a multi-disciplinary agency with a focus in branding and management was born. Blank Label specializes in Web, Identity, Print, and Illustration. In addition, it’s also a management house for emerging artists with a focus in artist development, marketing and booking.
The essence of Blank Label is to create an identity for emerging brands, one that reflects their singularity, not a data point on a demographic. Blank Label markets their clients strategically, without shame and with no fear of loss. Unlike typical agencies, Blank Label has no restrictions and judgments. There will be no taboo, no cliché genre, no distinct style, and no fabrication of writing.
Blank Label offers a challenge for its clients: DO YOU. Living is more than just survival. If you have a passion to create, Blank Label wants you. If you’re a dreamer with paint beneath your dirty fingernails, Blank Label wants you. Nobody can DO YOU as well as you can.
Ultimately it’s all about our clients.
As our saying goes: “Your vision. We fill in the Blanks.”

ROTTING TELEVISION
With a name intended for a T-Shirt Line, Rotting Television was created to push the envelope and embrace what is usually not seen on television. Being a “Trend-Setter since a Bed-Wetter,” Manny Toro boasts this same mantra for Rotting Television. Upon moving to New York City with 40 bucks in his pocket he found he did not have the budget to do much to enjoy “New York City” as portrayed on TV. Over the next few months, he realized there was an underlying code and culture in New York City. He began to attend many “free” entertainment industry parties, network with artists, attend exhibits, concerts and places even some New Yorkers didn’t know about.
With this new adventure at hand, he began a blog and named it after his favorite non-existent T-Shirt line. Once the first draft was up and running, blogging came easy. Within a year of realizing that people actually read his blog, Manny decided to take the site seriously. Enlisting Jessica Voltaire and Aimi Latore as part of the team, they created Rotting Television (RTV); the lifestyle website.
With the official launch in August of 2009, the team finally created a voice of the independent artist, in all respects with a hint of guilty pleasures. Focusing on all forms of entertainment, style, girls, art, design, and technology, Rotting Television sets trends that penetrate the masses months later. Quality content delivered quickly and quirky is what RTV does.
We hope you enjoy our site and welcome any questions or concerns you may possess. And remember, “Don’t Watch TV… Watch RTV!!!”
