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.

2007's 'Little Dragon' is a dynamic self-titled debut that is yet another credible and enchanting Euro-approximation of soul and rhythm and blues. Vocalist Yukimi Nagano displays all the subtle inflections and conspicuous acrobatics that have identified the R&amp;B genre for years, but specifically the more recent paradigms of the Chaka Khans and MJBs, noted easily on the album's highlight 'Constant Surprises.' Meanwhile, 'Wink' is a sexy, synth-heavy club banger that might conjure some of the more poppish acts (Rihanna). But the album - and group - don't stop there, thankfully. They give you everything from quaint piano ballads ('Twice') to jazz-drenched pieces, like 'After the Rain' where keyboardist Hakan Wirenstrand makes like Herbie Hancock with his sparse and dissonant chording. 'Forever' is an ambient number meant for dark lounges with a lot of pheromone activity. It's a genuine album bolstered by the group's collective artistry. It proves, once again, that geography has very little to do with authenticity.LP - Limited vinyl Repress.
