Venus Records is a Japanese jazz record label. It was founded in 1992 by Tetsuo Hara, who had worked as a producer for RCA Victor.[1][2] It mostly works with a select group of artists from Italy, the United States, and Japan,[3] and uses a signature 24-bit mastering process, named "Hyper Magnum Sound," that produces "very powerful sound with strong presence".[4] It is also known for its album covers, which use well-known photographers and frequently feature nudity.[1][3][2]
