I am a fan of all types--almost all types--of music, but know very little about the recording and producing processes. After doing some research, I came across an interesting small recording company called 870 Records. This small, independent label founded in 2009 is based in Nashville, TN. The recording company mainly focuses on the country, alternative rock, acoustic, and americana genres; which is probably due to their base in country music's backyard.
The company was started, like most other recording companies, with the same goals in mind of recording good music and making money; but along the way the company's direction changed. One cannot be sure what it was, but it must have had much to do with the nature of a small recording company competing in such a vicious business, all while struggling through tough economic times. The company's focus is now on doing charity work through compilation CDs. The company seems to be doing well, and the owners seem happy with the new direction in which their company is heading.
