One Hand Clapping Records
A SUBLABEL OF ONE HAND CLAPPING

Moonrise
Presents

The other side of the line — where bands meet their photo-negatives.

Moonrise is the label's after-hours imprint: the place for the records that arrive sideways — the alternate-dimension twins, the one-off personas, the version of your favourite song you have somehow never heard. It did not recruit its acts so much as find them already filed, with no author listed and a timestamp that hadn't happened yet.

Its inner studio is MADS — the Moonrise Alternate Dimension Studio, and it lives by one law: an inversion must invert with meaning. A twin is not a copy in a different colour; it is the same band having made the opposite choice, and paying for it. Four of them have surfaced on the roster so far.

THE MIXTAPES

The Tape Slate

Moonrise does not cut albums; Moonrise assembles tapes — pulled from the dimensions next door, labelled by hand, numbered in order of arrival, each one wearing a cheetle fingerprint somewhere on the shell. Eight are on the slate. None have surfaced. All are coming — except the one nobody will confirm.
