March update: Lee Rosevere - "Ghost Words" new release

Ghost Words is Lee Rosevere's first solo piano improvisational release, digitally recorded live with no overdubs or edits.

These compositions do not follow traditional song structure. Much like a layered painting, emotion is the guiding force behind invention: melodies hide inside one another, and moods and textures change frequently.

Lee's musical influences include Zappa's instrumental work, Michael Snow, Steve Reich, and John Cage.

March update: c4 - inner visions

c4 is back with another release of electronica that is a little different from past releases.

This time, funky slow drumbeats and grooves are mixed with lush ambient landscapes, with a strong emphasis on spacious and subtle melodies. A very mood-heavy, hypnotic and cool album!

Available for free download now!

March update: Lee Rosevere - Light Years [tube112]

A new album of Lee's ambient/experimental music called "Light Years" has been released at Test Tube, a prolific netlabel run by Pedro, that has tons of cool and groundbreaking music.

The review Pedro posted at the site explains the album better than we ever could, so go check it out. We're extremely happy puppies to be a part of the site, and encourage you to check out all the interesting stuff there. Thanks Pedro!

January update: Fudge - Off The Wall

Another EP of crazy covers, from Canada's FUDGE. On this outing, Fudge takes on fellow Canuck Gino Vannelli, Angel Corpus Christi, and Kenni Woods.

Fudge also rocks up Nino Tempo & April Stevens super-long title "I've Been Carrying A Torch For You So Long That I've Burned A Great Big Hole In My Heart", and if that wasn't enough...a Shaggs cover that is incredibly different, but rendered with heart.

January update: Monopole

Happy new year!

We've got the month off to a great start, with a debut release from a brand new member of the Happy Puppy family, Monopole (aka Richard Sudney). Monopole's music mixes analog and electronic instruments, with manipulated field recordings for some wonderful textures of sound. As always, it's available for free download!
