About
Squank Entertainment LLC was founded by James Michael House in 2001. It is a private company located in Eugene, Oregon. The primary mission for the company has always been to expand the boundaries of music, focusing mostly on independent artists that push the creative edge.
The company was initially involved in physical manufacturing and distrution of CDs in the first deacde of operations. Various independent artists were signed non-exclusively into what was dubbed the Independent Artist Alliance. Ideas for a large-scale build-to-order CD/DVD manufacturing was explored for a time, but ultimately abandoned due to imminent changing consumer habits and ever emerging digital distribution. The IAA was dissolved in time when the company decided to not renew the agreements.
Since the beginning the company has also been a platform for House to produce his own music (Squanky Kong), while also helping independent artists of various generes create and/or distribute their music to the world. After moving away from physical manufacturing and distribution, the company became more focused on music production. Though music is still the main avenue, Squank Entertainment plans to move in the future toward expanding the boundaries of film and multimedia platforms as well. There are no limits to creativity.
