About
NB Records was an independent record label active during the late 1970s and early 1980s, operating during a formative period for experimental and underground music. The label's documented output includes three releases spanning 1979 to 1980, showcasing a diverse approach to format distribution that reflected the era's technological landscape. The catalog demonstrates engagement with both vinyl and cassette media, with releases including the LP "Production Line" (1979) and cassette releases "Permanent Transience" (1979) and "Music and Movement" (1980). This multi-format strategy was characteristic of independent labels of the period, allowing for both collectible vinyl editions and accessible cassette versions for wider distribution. While limited documentation exists regarding the label's geographic base and complete artist roster, NB Records' catalog suggests involvement with the experimental music underground of its time. The label's brief but documented existence represents the independent ethos of the era, when small labels served as crucial outlets for avant-garde and non-commercial musical expression.
