There is a lot of name-dropping in this article, but I can't find notability here. The sources given are either directly tied to the company, or are based on PR releases. My attempts to find independent, reliable sources did not turn up anything, but I'll admit my efforts were hindered by numerous results related to Big Machine Records, of which this label has no relation. I don't see that the label has signed any notable artists, nor does it seem to have had any impact on any regional musical culture, or played a significant part in the exposure or development of any genre. Therefore I currently judge this to fail both WP:GNG and any criteria by which notability may be assigned to a record label. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 02:32, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
