We’re a non-profit innovation lab for the music industry

At Thunderboom Records, we are committed to empowering music artists, professionals and organizations in the rapidly-changing music industry.

We do this through collaborative projects in which we create, test and share responsible technology, such as artificial intelligence, mixed reality and virtual avatar applications.

Tech for Good

Our mission is to strengthen resilience, increase equal opportunities and enrich creative expression by promoting technology that is;

Inclusive

Complementary

Transparant

Our work takes on many forms: from developing open-source AI tools to organizing interactive workshops, and from producing immersive live show cases to sharing good practices.

Core team

​Thunderboom Records is founded by Joost de Boo and Max Tiel in 2020. Together with a wide variety of external partners, they work on the execution of the various projects.
