Sony Music Records (#1339)

[nstz]

I think the "Sony Music Records" division no longer exists after an internal restructuring of Sony Music Labels Inc. in 2019.

On 2018-10-13 the SME website stated that Sony Music Labels Inc. had 9 labels as divisions (事業部門)

Around the same time they stopped assigning copyrights to "Sony Music Records" and started assigning them to "Sony Music Labels Inc."

℗ 2019 Sony Music Labels Inc.

The same change was also made to all their other labels.

From some searching it appears that the current divisions of Sony Music Labels Inc. are 第1レーベルグループ, 第2レーベルグループ and 第3レーベルグループ.
