WM Recordings focuses on music that is, in their own words, "a little different". They do not specialize in one style, but release anything from free jazz to experimental soundscapes, world music and other styles that are often neglected by other netlabels.
Initially most releases were available in MP3 format. These include downloadable artwork, liner notes and other information. More than hundred free albums have been released so far.
In 2007 WM Recordings started adding commercial releases to their catalog. These are available from most major download stores. August 2008 saw the release of their first physical CD: "Handle With Care - Might Panic" by Danish band Panicphobia.
