Minimal Damage Recordings is an independent label for adventurous music that doesn’t fit regular categories. f you want to be/stay informed, or buy a CD, please contact me on albert.v@xs4all.nl Minimal Damage Recordings is a member of Toondist. The Cd’s are also available on Bandcamp (links on the album pages)
One of the goals for the label is releasing albums where established musicians work together with new talents. As a teacher at the Utrecht Conservatory I meet many creative, dedicated, authentic musicians, makers, improvisors who (can) add great value to the musical landscape. The label offers a platform for these new collaborations. An example of such a project is the release of MDR 2301, Het Oog in de Naald – The Eye in the Needle -, featuring the phenomenal Roosmarijn Tuenter, Rogier Hornman and Francisca Snip

Please consider this: the best way to support musicians is by going to concerts and buying their music (either CD’s, Vinyl or Digital releases). Use streaming platforms to enjoy the abundance of creativity that is out there, to inform yourself, to be surprised, but realise that producing good music is dedicated, professional and expensive work. Artists will be deeply grateful for your support, even more so in these challenging times. Thank you!
