Welcome to Honeycomb Music!
My name is Josh Milan. I proudly established Honeycomb Music, LLC in 2010 along with my partner, Adam Cruz. I started Honeycomb after more than two decades in the Dance Music industry, notably as a founding member of the iconic House music group Blaze.
As an independent record label, Honeycomb’s vision and mission has always been to release timeless, quality music organically produced with live instrumentation, heartfelt lyrics, soul-stirring melodies, and pulsating rhythms, punctuated with authentic vocal performances. As Adam shares, “Josh and I launched Honeycomb Music with the intention of releasing amazing music that the people can stick to, relate to and feel joy from...music that heals.”
Adam and I have been passionately committed to the music through all of the label’s 61 releases — singles, EPs, albums, and compilations. We have offered both digital and vinyl releases for our fans. Through our partnership, which honors both creative artistic expression and music business integrity — we have developed what’s affectionately known as the Honeycomb sound. At the core and essence of Honeycomb Music are its songs, penned and produced by yours truly, which have been interpreted sonically by more than 40 recording artists over the past 15 years. Every Honeycomb release reflects what it means to live in today’s world. Our songs resonate themes of positivity, spirituality, self-affirmation, being in love, navigating heartbreak and healing, recognizing injustice, celebrating freedom, and fostering unity and family. We release songs that our fans can enjoy at home, in the car, or club. Honeycomb Music is an eclectic mosaic of Soulful House, Jazz, R&B, Soul, Funk, World, Fusion, Electronic, and even Soft Rock. We believe that a specific genre or category cannot define Honeycomb Music; most importantly, our music can be felt with the heart, mind, body, and spirit.

Since Honeycomb’s first release in 2011, we have consistently pumped out hits that have quickly earned the #1 spot on Bandcamp’s All R&B/Soul Chart as well as its Gospel Chart. The key to Honeycomb’s success is deeply connected to our roster of powerhouse vocalists, musicians, and spoken-word artists— artists such as Dawn Tallman, Diviniti, Lamone, Ritmo Y Tumbao, Cinnamon Brown, Dannis Winston, Tracy Brathwaite, Sheree Hicks, Sandra St. Victor, ChinahBlac, Kia Stewart, Temika Moore, Joseff McKenneth, Raw Honey Poets, and others on the horizon. Honeycomb Music also collaborates with GRAMMY Award-winning producer DJ Kemit. Since 2012, Honeycomb Music’s official web store reports more than 16,000 downloads of our releases and over 400,000 plays.

this is a labor of love, something that Adam and I believe in….
Adam and I also host special Honeycomb Music events and parties to celebrate new releases, new artists, label anniversaries, and even my own June 9th birthday. We have gathered together at various venues in New York City, on the Circle Line Cruise around Manhattan, and have even taken the party as far as the Bahamas and Greece. Honeycomb Music events always feature live performances from Honeycomb artists, world-renowned guest DJ’s, industry networking, Honeycomb merchandise, and most importantly, an opportunity for family, friends, and fans from all over the world to celebrate together.
Honeycomb Music is more than a label that releases chart-topping soulful music -- this is a labor of love, something that Adam and I believe in. Honeycomb is a collective of creatives who bring unique talents, authenticity, heart, and soul to every artistic endeavor. And none of these endeavors are possible without encouragement from our very own Honeycomb Nation -- supporters worldwide who have been championing the label since day one.
THANK YOU to every single person who has ever purchased a Honeycomb release or bought our merch, played a Honeycomb jam in your set, attended one of our events, tuned in to The Honeycomb Music Non-Radio Lunch Break, or sent us warm wishes on a social media post. We are grateful for your support. There is no Honeycomb Music without YOU.
