Mice Parade is the solo project of Adam Pierce, formerly a member of the low-fi pop band Swirlies and co-founder of [a12536]. His music, although it sounds electronic, actually relies very little on samples. Instead, Pierce plays all the instruments himself and records them live in one take. Albums like Mokoondi and Ramda showcase his skill as a multi-instrumentalist.
With roots in both indie rock and electronic music, Mice Parade creates a unique sound that combines elements from both genres. The result is a captivating blend of organic instrumentation and intricate melodies that captivate listeners.
Pierce's dedication to creating music without relying heavily on electronics sets him apart from other artists in the genre. His albums are filled with rich textures and layered arrangements that highlight his talent as a musician.

Fat Cat is an electronica, noise, and post-rock label based in Brighton, UK. Originally a record shop in the early '90s, the label was established when the shop closed down in 1997 with support from [l311].

Renowned for their distinctive series of releases such as the "7" Series", "10" Series", "12" Series", "Splinter Series", "Remix Series", and "E-RMX Series," Fat Cat has left a significant mark on the music industry. For more instrumental orchestral-type releases, they also operate a sublabel called [l=130701], named after its inception date: 13 July 2001.

With numerous notable artists under their belt, Fat Cat Records continues to be at the forefront of cutting-edge music production and distribution.

'candela' is the stunning new full-length from mice parade, a bright and vivd lp that omniverously references source material from across the globe and rebuilds it all into the distinctive, inimitable voice that mice parade has come to represent. 'candela' represents at once mice parade's most adventurous release and its closest to pure pop music. from the dense, rhythmically-intense 'currents' (featuring temporary residence's caroline lufkin), and its funk brio to 'pretending's devestatingly pretty drumkit / electric guitar interplay (pierce is a hugely accomplished percussionist, flamenco guitar player and general multi-instrumentalist), there are heady moments of pop brilliance amongst abstract, restrained eloquence. a rare record that reveals more with each listen, the ear is piqued by contrasting elements on every run through the length of each track: a melody line here, percussion pattern here, a melancholic and startlingly visual lyrical phrase elsewhere.
