Pampelmoose is a music and MP3 web site covering the eclectic independent music scene. We stay clear of major labels and their artists to avoid having the Web Sheriff gallop through our offices. We are indie at heart so we support all things indie – in all its shapes and forms.
Dave walloped the bass strings and is a founding member of the highly influential, post-punk band, Gang of Four. With his business partner, Ned Failing, he started Pampelmoose in 2005. We love music and we love the way the internet leveled the playing field for all artists.
Josh Kneedler is a highly experienced interactive designer. He began working in online media in 1997 at the birth of the interactive world, a world we now take for granted, one that has become as common as the utilities we use at home. His skills consist of design, programming, and creative direction. It’s an eclectic mix, but one that is vital to pursuing new ventures where traditional broadcast media rules do not apply. Josh understands that music artists no longer need traditional record labels. A consumer in Japan may never have heard of our local Northwest music scene so local bands need a different way to promote their independently produced CDs. Josh has the necessary skills and experience that highlight innovation over imitation to tackle contemporary challenges in the world of interactive programming, design and creative marketing. Some of Josh’s work can be seen on his web site: http://www.joshkneedler.net
It is that time. As it’s 4:20PM PST here that makes it 12:20AM GMT in the UK so that new Radiohead album should now be slipping out as MP3 files. Mike Smith of Nothing But Green Lights and Flick from Puddlegum are live blogging here about the album’s internet roll out.

October 9th, 2007 at 4:07 pmclever, clever, the tracks are reported as 160 kbps, so that uppity bittorrent sites (OINK) will not allow them. (They have a 190 kbps minimum.)

October 9th, 2007 at 9:05 pmwhy are you always yelling at me, radiohead?
ah. 160k is a nice promotional yet basically worthless rate.
October 9th, 2007 at 9:05 pmI have it. Review to follow. If you\’re on the west coast you should be able to read it while sipping your cup o\’ joe….otherwise by the time I wake up I\’m sure the pundits will have already weighed in.
October 9th, 2007 at 10:40 pm@Josh…160kbs for free is better than iTunes at 128kbs for $9.99 no?
