Artistry Music (formerly ARTizen Music Group) is a smooth jazz record label, founded by jazz trumpeter Rick Braun and saxophonist Richard Elliot. In September 2008, the label was acquired by Mack Avenue Records.

In addition to Braun and Elliot, current Artistry Music artists include Paul "Shilts" Weimar of Down to the Bone and Jackiem Joyner.

In July 2006 the label released the Jason Miles smooth jazz album "To Grover, With Love", a tribute to Grover Washington, Jr. Contributing to the album were some of the biggest names in smooth jazz, including Regina Belle, Dave Koz, Russ Freeman, Gerald Albright, Peter White, Chuck Loeb, Joe Sample, George Duke and Steve Cole. "Just the Two of Us", featuring Belle, Duke and Cole, was the album's most successful track, reaching #4 on the Billboard Top Contemporary Jazz chart.
