New Music Distribution Service

Profile:

Also called "New Music Distribution Center" on some releases.

Non-profit founded in 1972 by Michael Mantler and Carla Bley, "in an attempt to cut through the red tape and break through the brick walls faced by jazz artists who deal in free-form and avant-garde music." (The Emporia Gazette, 21 May 1974 p2)

They also had a direct mail service that had about 16,000 subscribers by early 1984
