A record label is also a company that manages such brands and trademarks; coordinates the production, manufacture, distribution, promotion, and enforcement of copyright protection of sound recordings and music videos; conducts AandR; and maintains contracts with recording artists and their managers.
Record labels are often under the control of a corporate umbrella organization called a music group.
Record companies and music publishers that are not under the control of the big four are generally considered to be independent (indie), even if they are large corporations with complex structures.

The concept of an independent record label is a record label perceived as operating outside the sphere of the 'major' record labels, which is to say the few record companies which dominate the recorded music industry in the West.
Such labels - which would sometimes operate away from the parent company - might be created for one artist, or for the purposes of signing artists under different contractual arrangements to those who were signed to the parent label.
In the new century, independent record labels are changing into a new form with the emergence of open source record labels.

An alternative is to use a hard-to-spoof visible identifier attribute for the table, such as the hash of the record's primary key or creation timestamp.
In the end, whether or not a record in a database needs to have a truly globally unique ID is dictated by the business rules, not the database architecture.
Some other records, possibly corresponding to principal business entities, may otherwise already contain a unique identifier as part of their business data (such as the combination of timestamp and account name for a ledger entry).
