Founded in 1984, Fundamental has been a part of almost every musical genre from pop to metal to post-punk to Americana to bluegrass. The vision of Fundamental has always been to identify great bands that are committed to writing, performing and touring. Fundamental's amazing roster over the years blossomed because of our commitment to international marketing and promotion. With releases in Europe and the United States, the label has continued to give the masses what they want while building a brand that signifies innovation and creativity. With additional imprints like Nate Starkman & Son, Fundamental has long provided markets with imports, full lengths and EPs for over 20 years. In 2004, we're committed to building the label on a new group of artists, both veterans and newcomers like Bill Mallonee of Vigilantes of Love, Doug Hoekstra and the Urban Hillbilly Quartet that will again feed music lovers with wonderful indie releases.
