There is no reason for Music. It simply exists.

   Hermes Records was founded in Winter 1999 aiming to produce and promote modern Persian music, discover creative musicians and help artists approach new horizons.While the music industry in Iran is devoting most of its attention to popular and traditional genres, artists from diverse backgrounds have been brought together to explore common understandings and new musical colorings under the slogan Music for Music.  The trust of talented Persian musicians as well as artists from abroad has helped us walk through this path and continue searching for new ideas. 

Our Vision
- Creating a joyful and inspirational environment to generate musical ideas.

Our Mission
- to attain and sustain international reputation for persian music and artists.
- to utilize advantages of persian music
- to establish a share for persian musical productions in the global market.
- to defend the legal rights of persian artists
- to make people enjoy music!
