Label GB

Peacefrog

Peacefrog is a UK independent label that was started in 1991 by Pete Hutchison and Paul Ballard. They have been releasing various styles of electronic music since their inception. The label was named after the track Peace Frog by The Doors, which can be found on their album Morrison Hotel.

In 1996, Paul Ballard decided to leave Peacefrog Records, leaving Pete Hutchison as the sole owner and operator of the label. Despite this change, Peacefrog continued to thrive and release groundbreaking electronic music.

With over three decades of experience in the industry, Peacefrog has established itself as a respected authority in the world of electronic music. Their diverse roster includes talented artists from different genres within the electronic music spectrum.

As featured in Fact magazine’s “The greatest techno albums you’ve never heard” Originally released way back in 1994 The Silicon Dawn was one of the first full lengths released on Peacefrog during a period which turned out to be remarkably fruitful for techno. Tracks such as Parallel and Population 2 kissed the same patch of sky as Black Dog or Icon era Derek May but Dan’s unique ability to mix melodies, harmonic layers around complex percussion proved to be a compelling innovation from the techno norm. Richly harmonic, expressionist techno in the grandest Detroit style from Dan Curtin.
