ScreaM Records

ScreaM Records is a dance music[1] label established in 2016 by South Korean record label SM Entertainment.

History

In 2016, SM Entertainment executive producer Lee Soo-man introduced the EDM label ScreaM Records in the presentation show SMTOWN: New Culture Technology, 2016, held at the SM Town Coex Artium.[2][3] According to Lee, the label aims to expand from "view and listen performance" to "enjoy performance together".[4] The label was also designed to "promote music" through collaborations with global EDM DJs, producers, and various artists at South Korea and abroad.[5]

The idea behind the creation of the label was made by Lee Seo-kyung, a former SM A&R overseas employee. Previously, Lee worked on Shinee's "View" (2015) and f(x)'s "4 Walls" (2015), which incorporated songs of the deep house genre into K-pop for the first time. Lee Soo-man gave his opinion and he accepted it. There was a speculation that SM The Performance might have brought Zedd's song with it. According to an interview between music critic Lee Dae-hwa and Lee Seo-kyung, it was planned as a label that covers the entire electronic music, but it was said that the word "EDM" was used to express it in empathetic terms.[6]

In April 2024, ScreaM Records expansion as Dance Music Label and revealed their new logo.[7]

In May 2024, ScreaM Records launch sub-brand, Scream Academy, an educational program that provides practical tips and know-how from talented domestic and international electronic music producers to anyone interested in electronic music.[8] This sub-brand was launch following the label signed MOU with Seoul Institute of the Arts in May 2023.[9]
