Pussyfoot was started back in 1993 by DJ, Artist and Producer Howie B in response to the lack of musical diversity seen in other record labels. Truly independent, Pussyfoot toed the waters of musical expression through genre-bending releases from the likes of Spacer, Naked Funk, Rodney P, Dobie and Howie B himself. The label’s musical focus was all things electronic: breaks, beats, trip-hop and downtempo, but they also explored folk, hip-hop, funk, and a whole host of hybrid musical forms.
Pussyfoot also introduced artists such as Alison Goldfrapp, who lent her vocal stylings to Spacers album ‘Sensory Man’ and Jacknife Lee who released his album ‘Muy Rico’ and then went on to be a successful music producer for the likes of Bloc Party, The Black Keys and U2.
After taking a short catnap in 2003, the label has awoken with a feverish urge to stretch its legs in new and exciting ways. They aim to pick up where they left off and will continue to cut and paste musical styles together to great effect – look forward to a multitude of new and intriguing releases set to be deposited into your ears over the coming months.
