HUNGRY EYE
Hungry Eye Records is dedicated to the notion that commercially released media can serve the following two functions; to document a set of events or circumstances, or to express perspectives or ideas much in the same way as a manifesto. Hungry Eye has these two functions in mind when releasing music.
Hungry Eye Records rejects the reification of the past, but recognizes that music is a dynamic narrative that interpolates interpretations of the past, present, and future. Hungry Eye’s concern is not to document a specific style of music, and present it as a static representation of a place and time. Rather, it is to support progressive currents in music made under noteworthy circumstances.
Hungry Eye Records does not cater to a specific geographic region. Hungry Eye believes that there are ways that a band’s music can be of commensurate importance as their music. Therefore, in addition to helping “break” bands to a wider audience, Hungry Eye expends effort on exposing the music of different movements, scenes, and regions in hopes of contributing to a musical cosmopolitanism.
In these ways, Hungry Eye Records aspires to contribute to and influence the musical culture of today.
