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.

Kofi Holmes Attivor aka Mined is - quite literally - a man of many names. Born to a Ghanaian family in Tooting in London, this electronica newcomer, philomath and a Molecular biologist was given eight names at birth. Raised on the RnB and soul from his parents record collection, he was granted his wish to get his first “sleek, silver Casio”. Putting his musical experiments on hold, Kevin went pursued his other passion of science at University of York and a Molecular Cell biology degree. While investigating the sonic landscapes of Brian Eno’s Music for Airports and the work by artists like Spooky Black, Majical Cloudz and Foals, he started developing his own sound that embodied his philomath pursuits. Mined deals with his emotions with brutal sincerity while placing these lyrics in a sanctuary-like, pastoral sonic sphere, gravitating towards the tranquility of James Blake, Caribou and Boards of Canada. “I've always been more drawn to poignant honest music that evokes a sense of melancholy, or sadness or nostalgia”, he explains. Written in his room in London, his tracks were created as a form of escapism. Partnering up with the filmmaking duo The Rest (Jungle, Little Simz) and illustrator and Stormzy collaborator Sam Adefe to visualise the crisp richness of Mined's quintessential British electronica.
