Domo Records was established in 1993 by Eiichi Naito, a record producer, recording engineer and artist manager. Domo is an abbreviation and romanization of the Japanese expression dōmo arigatō (どうもありがとう), which means "thank you very much" in Japanese.

In total, Kitaro's albums with Domo Records have received 13 Grammy nominations.

The label has been distributed by Narada, Virgin/EMI Records, Fontana Distribution/Universal and Allegro Media Group. Domo Records is currently distributed by Entertainment One Distribution. The record label's executive team currently includes Eiichi Naito, Dino Malito and Howard Sapper.[1]
