Hi. We’re starting a label and it’s called Peppermint Future. Follow along here if ya like. We have been hard at work already and we think it reflects a way of doing things that makes sense to the three of us.
There’s a certain kind of sound and spirit that we’re interested in cultivating, and we hear and see it around us here in this delightfully strange little community. It’s a sideways kind of scrappiness, worn in like a nice old glove where the details can’t be well photographed. Dingy sounds that are pretty. Heavy softness and sharp-edged grass that makes us pull up our socks and walk in ways other people—people in other places or other communities—simply don’t. You can hear it if you listen.
We want to engage with it all in ways that reflect that scrappiness. You won’t find us on Spotify, for instance. You know why. Honestly, you do. We will make items you can see and feel and we will see you at the show and at the park and on the sidewalk. We will be here in this digital space too, yes, but in a more limited way. We want to live a real life and think about how to have music and art fit into the life we want to live. Maybe some of that will look a lot like how others (musicians, labels, whatever) do things, but we bet that a lot of it won’t.
So we’ll be tending to every detail of a handful of projects each year until it’s all over. So maybe we can dream a focused dream, holding hands, sauntering into a Peppermint Future.
More soon <3
