Houndstooth

Houndstooth is a UK independent record label that has been making waves in the music industry since 2013. Based at fabric EC1 in East London, this label is known for its innovative and diverse range of artists and performers. The label is run by *a2554693*, who is also responsible for the popular *l229559* podcast series, as well as *Rob Butterworth*, who curates the fabric and FABRICLIVE mix series. With their finger on the pulse of cutting-edge music, Houndstooth continues to push boundaries and deliver groundbreaking sounds to music lovers worldwide.

Singer, producer, song-writer, and artist Penelope Trappes hails from Australia but now calls London home. With a unique blend of haunting melodies and ethereal vocals, she has captivated audiences worldwide. Drawing inspiration from a diverse range of artists such as Kelly Moran, Abul Mogard, and Katie Gately, Trappes creates music that is both mesmerizing and thought-provoking.
Her compositions are characterized by their atmospheric soundscapes and introspective lyrics. Trappes' ability to seamlessly blend electronic elements with organic instrumentation sets her apart in the music industry. Her work has been compared to other talented artists like Christina Vantzou, Sarah Davachi, and Hilary Woods.
In addition to her musical endeavors, Trappes is also an accomplished visual artist. Her creativity knows no bounds as she explores various mediums to express her artistic vision. Through her artistry, she invites listeners into a world where emotions run deep and imagination takes flight.

After the release of her sublime, critically acclaimed album Penelope Trappes returns with Redeux; an album of top-drawer reworks of tracks taken from Penelope Two, which showcase not only the intrinsic brilliance of Penelope’s composition and performances, but also her far-reaching and all-encompassing musical influences and significance. Scottish post-rock legends Mogwai stretch out Burn On into a scorching, warbling drone that flips the original sombre subtlety for grandeur and in-your-face majesty. Factory Floor member Nik Colk Void offers up a wayward, statically charged reworking of Nite Hive which reimagines the track’s solemn beauty as a heads down roller and Throbbing Gristle’s Cosey Fanni Tutti’s dystopian, avant-garde and jazz tinged electronics are deployed alongside her signature Cornet to flip the album single Carry Me. Shelter Press label founder, producer and visual artist Félicia Atkinson also appears plus Houndstooth mainstay Throwing Snow. Icelandic multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Jófríður Ákadóttir aka JFDR injects nimble rhythms and guitar into piano ballad Maeve. Poppy Akroyd, Savages producer Jonny Hostile, Oneohtrix Point Never and Tim Hecker collaborator and Sigur Ros’ musical director Paul Corley, delivers a forlorn take on Nite Hive, whilst Swedish duo Aasthma (Peder Mannerfelt and Pär Grindvik) take album single Connector to an entirely different realm.
