Small UK Ambient / Techno / Breakbeat / Goa Trance label. Off-shoot of the organisation that ran Club Dog in London and the infamous touring Megadog parties. The two biggest acts on the label, Banco de Gaia and Eat Static, had their first CD releases after signing to Planet Dog (prior to this they'd only released tapes and/or vinyl).
At first the label had separate numbering for singles (e.g. BARK 001 CDS/T) and albums (BARK CD/LP 001) but following mix-ups at the manufacturing plant they decided to adopt a common scheme for both (i.e. 005, 006 and 007 are albums only; 008, 009 and 010 are singles only; etc).

Planet Dog is one of the labels I miss the most. A label that brought us some of the most talented musicians we have in the psychedelic electronic music scene. Fantastic organic chill out music from Banco De Gaia, a new world of "alien" techno from the Eat Static guys, atmospheric drum n bass from Future Loop Foundation, high quality ambient in the Feed Your Head series, a new way of doing dub from Children Of The Bong etc etc. With other words, high quality stuff from beginning to end from this fantastic label. One of my favourite labels of all times, which introduced me to the taste I have today.
