Just like last year, we’ll be present at the annual winter fair at the VechtclubXL. On November 23rd, you can find us selling Tiny Room Records vinyl, cds, tapes and zines. A good opportunity to buy something local as a Christmas or Sinterklaas present. And to help me get rid of these boxes!! đ
This Sunday, the last Tiny Adventures edition of the year will take place in Houten! Weâre hosting two Tiny Room acts in De Groeverij. Both artists came back after a long hiatus with new (and different!) music under the same moniker as 15 years ago.
LUIK will open the afternoon show with his improvised guitar pieces. Beautiful, mind-altering sounds, getting even better each show.
Herrek will play afterwards. New songs, Dutch lyrics, with a big role for piano and bass clarinet. Transparent, inwards, soothing. A double bill that could have happened in 2011 (and probably did) but only sounds this way in 2025.
Buy your tickets here to reserve a spot!
Surprise! There is a new Caspar Milquetoast for you to enjoy! Check it out on our Bandcamp page.
After the last EP, We’ll Have Tea, Caspar Milquetoast returns with ten new songs that slip between camp, fantasy and history, crafted with Mellotron dreams and harmonium depth.
Another Olive, Praefectus? gathers ten tracks written and recorded between 2022 and 2025. Some appeared suddenly (Song For Body was captured in a single hour) while others, like Ode To The Gladiator, simmered for years before taking shape. Together they form a compact, 20-minute world of sound and text: a new place to dwell in, as fleeting as it is rich.
No physical release this time, so enjoy these digital tracks until the end of times!
Combo Qazam presents Patrick XXXXII
With the âCombo Qazam presentsâ Patrick-shows we are hosting experimental, weird, funny, loud, quiet and great music by independent artists and great people.
For this edition we want to welcome you for a night of local free jazzy ambient, danceable electronica layering and USA country rock ‘n’ roll!
Hainesii
Hainesii is a project by Max van Westerop (of former local indie outfit Loema) in which themes of mortality, care and the heart are explored in songs, whilst drawing inspiration from genres like ambient music, post-rock and tinges of free/spiritual jazz.
Tobin Kirk
Tobin Kirk is an American songwriter and performer whose colorful pathâfrom train driving to delivering groceries to John Prineâreflects the character and storytelling at the heart of his music. Tobin blends classic and cosmic country, rock & roll, and cowpunk into a sound thatâs both timeless and fresh. His first two albums were released by our partners in Houten of De Groeverij!
Laplander
Laplander is a one-man band crafting indietronica with a melancholic edge. From the vast landscapes of the Biesbosch, where he lives, he builds tracks that are both layered and danceable.
Timetable-ish:
20.30 Hainesii
21.15 Tobin Kirk
22.00 Laplander
Entrance is ⏠8 (cash or QR). Drinks are cheap (cash or QR).
COME VIBE WITH US
Hope to see you there!

It’s time for a new Tiny Adventure! After a few years we’re back with this cool concept of Tiny Room hosted duo shows in record store De Groeverij.
Next Sunday, Boeije and KristĂłf HajĂłs come to Houten for an intimate performance! (Rienko) Boeije will play his first solo show ever, so we can have a clear focus on his Dutch lyrics and stories. Folky reflections on faith, life and death. Very much looking forward to it.
KristĂłf HajĂłs performs with a 5 piece semi-acoustic band, mostly songs from his latest album 6:00PM – crooner indie pop about what it’s like to grow old(er) in the queer community. It will be the last band show for a while, so don’t miss out!
It’s an afternoon show, you are welcome at 3PM.

Today, this massive project is finally being released! Over the past years, I’ve been digging through old folders, hard drives, artist archives, and dusty inboxes to compile a record of foundlings – songs that never fit in elsewhere. This double album is the result: a personal, patchwork document of ten years of DIY music-making and friendship. I love all 27 tracks so dearly.
It’s the 75th release on Tiny Room Records, and we celebrate 10 years of existence of the label. Thanks to all the crowdfunders that helped make this happen.
Listen on our Bandcamp page or on any streaming platform. And get the record in your local record store or by shooting me a message. 
For all the lovers of cassette releases, weird experimental kraut/drone music, obscure indie etc: take a listen to this one! We’ve got 15 copies of the cassettes in store. Have a nice weekend!
Demain Sans Faute is the solo project of Aurel (aka LâAustral) from Brest, France. His music is a rich blend of kraut, psychedelia, experimental sounds, and polyrhythmsâlong tracks intertwined with short improvisations on synthesizers, guitars, and percussion.
La FĂȘte Est Finie is the fourth album by Demain Sans Faute, recorded and mixed at the Epicericords studio in FinistĂšre, France, between February and April 2025. This concise album features two long pieces, improvised and then rearranged, before finally being re-injected into a small feedback table.
Jake Nicoll blasts off into space with his new LP Saturn Returns!
Saturn Returns is Canadian indie musician Jake Nicollâs latest LP. Departing from some of Jakeâs folkier releases over the past years, Saturn Returns is built upon layers of synthesizers, crunchy delays and driving drum machines. Ranging from full blown synth pop, to new wave, to brooding experimental dungeon synth, Saturn Returns highlights a different side of Jake Nicollâs songwriting and sonic craftsmanship.
Get your copy in our Bandcamp webstore today (on Bandcamp Friday)!
Well, I know itâs been a few days, but I had to recover from all the awesomeness of this party… On Friday, we celebrated 10 years of Tiny Room Records at Studio Patrick, with the Foundlings LP ready for pickup and beautiful performances by Herrek, Master Solo, and Coaster.
It wasnât just a packed, mega humid night full of smiling music lovers – it was also a culmination of everything weâve worked on TOGETHER over the past ten years. It was one of those special nights that remind you why itâs good to be alive, even with all the stupid stuff in the world. At least, thatâs how it felt to me – I really love this little indie community.
Big thanks to my bandmates Arno, Ab, and Gino for helping me organize everything, and of course to Arthur for the sound! Another huge thank you to Anneke, Thijs, Floyd, all the artists, and everyone else who supports this label, this place, and this music in any way.
The first four photos are by Johan from De Groeverij, the rest by Ab al Tamimi â€ïž.
Weâre taking a little summer break but will be back in a few weeks with a special Patrick Open Air (on Beton-T & Studio Patrick) event on Thursday, August 21 – mark your calendars!
