About Me

Moondata Productions is a Montreal-based music production house, working as an independant record label. Open to endless possibilities, Moondata promotes and produces on-going events such as the monthly series LABprojects as well as working with numerous artists to create unique live and studio experiences...

we're a few folks who love music - all kinds - beautiful heartwrenching songs full of melodic bliss to gutwrenching freaked out noisespace to ass-shaking kick-out-the-jams workshops to?????

We just released our first compilation CD titled Satellite: LABprojects 2003-2005. It features 46 Montreal musicians on 14 songs, spanning over 70 minutes, in unique live improvised performances.
