Rocket Girl

Rocket Girl is a UK music label that was founded by Vinita Joshi in 1997. With over two decades of experience, Rocket Girl has established itself as a prominent player in the music industry. The label prides itself on its diverse roster of talented artists and performers.

Since its inception, Rocket Girl has been dedicated to promoting innovative and boundary-pushing music across various genres. The label's commitment to artistic freedom and creativity has earned it a reputation for releasing groundbreaking albums that push the boundaries of conventional music.

With an impressive catalog of releases, Rocket Girl continues to discover and nurture emerging talent while also working with established artists who share their vision. From *indie rock* to *experimental electronic*, the label's eclectic range ensures there is something for every music lover.

Pieter Nooten (born 22 January 1961 in Oss) is a Dutch musician and composer renowned for his exceptional work with Clan of Xymox. With a career spanning several decades, Nooten has made significant contributions to the music industry through his unique sound and artistic vision.

Having collaborated with esteemed artists such as Robin Guthrie, Michael Brook, and Brendan Perry, Nooten's talent extends beyond his solo endeavors. His collaborations have resulted in captivating musical compositions that have resonated with audiences worldwide.

Influenced by various genres including ambient, electronic, and post-punk, Nooten's distinctive style combines ethereal melodies with atmospheric textures. His compositions possess an emotive quality that transports listeners to introspective realms.

Someone There is Pieter Nooten’s sixth solo-album with London based indie label Rocket Girl.

After leaving 4AD-signed 80’s new wave act Clan Of Xymox in 1990, Nooten has never looked back, refining
his skill in crafting heart-wrenchingly gorgeous nu-ambient, neo-classical instrumentals, using nothing more
than a lap top and sample libraries. His work received critical acclaim throughout the musical world without
Nooten ever compromising his well-defined, particular specialism: weaving extended instrumental pieces
that embody strong emotional pathos and refined delicacy at the same time.


One of his most acclaimed pieces of work was the album he released with Michael Brook Sleeps With
Fishes; perhaps one of 4AD’s most underrated records in the classic 4AD oeuvre.

Pieter Nooten composed, mixed and mastered Someone There in his minimalist home studio in
Amsterdam.
