Deep Elm Records - History

History

Deep Elm Records originally started out in New York City, and according to founder John Szuch, was formed to help build and support the local music scene. Deep Elm's first release was the single "Anthemic Tune" by Curdlefur in 1995. Their first album was released by Camber in March 1997.

In 2006 Deep Elm Records signed their first UK act Free Diamonds. As of 2008, Deep Elm stopped pressing physical CDs and vinyl, effectively becoming a digital only label. The label has a promotion where they give away 99 songs free to every person. Deep Elm is also highly active in the licensing of music to TV / Film / Commercials.

The label has adamantly refused to be bought out by a larger company, and are currently located in Maui, Hawaii.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    He wrote in prison, not a History of the World, like Raleigh, but an American book which I think will live longer than that. I do not know of such words, uttered under such circumstances, and so copiously withal, in Roman or English or any history.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    My good friends, this is the second time in our history that there has come back from Germany to Downing Street peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. And now I recommend you to go home and sleep quietly in your beds.
    Neville Chamberlain (1869–1940)

    Philosophy of science without history of science is empty; history of science without philosophy of science is blind.
    Imre Lakatos (1922–1974)
