The label also specializes in unique acoustic, symphonic, and lounge renditions of Billboard Hot 100 hits. In addition, Big Eye Music has worked with artists such as Blackstreet, Salt-n-Pepa, Coolio, and others who have used Big Eye’s recordings as backing tracks for live performances as well as studio recordings.

History
Big Eye was started by a group of professional artists, studio musicians and engineers in the UK. As technology improved the ability to transfer large sound files from one location to another, the Big Eye production team soon found ways to expand their roster to include members from countries all across the globe such as the U.S., Germany and elsewhere.
The Rock Heroes version
The Rock Heroes are one of the artist collectives operating under the Big Eye Music banner specializing in modern and classic rock. As of early 2013, they have released over 50 albums both digitally and physically. The group achieved their biggest success when their version of Kid Rock’s “All Summer Long” debuted at No. 38 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts and then rose to No. 29 the next week. In Canada, it debuted at No. 16 on the Canadian Hot 100.
K-POP All-Start
This artist collective, specializing in Korean Pop music, saw their version of PSY’s smash hit single “Gangnam Style” out sell the original version in Japan. The track climbed as high as No. 67 on the iTunes Japan singles chart.
