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

Taking up at least a third of the film, the game is a supercharged, fast-paced, immersive experience that celebrates the players’ showmanship and true talent. Yauch replays, rewinds, [...]

Every night of the week you will find hundreds of bands performing in the hundreds of clubs around P-Town. It’s also well known that Portland is home to The Shins, Spoon, Modest Mouse, Stephen [...]

I’ve read a few articles lately about how the price of gas is crimping many bands’ touring activities. I’m not surprised given that for a band to get from Portland to San Francisco and back, a round trip of 1,266 miles, a decent van loaded with equipment and band members might get 12 miles a [...]
