Welcome to Samplehound! Samplehound is an ambitious project which aims to release a total of 16 albums of new music by the end of 2022. Samplehound has two strands - Samplehound Relax which concentrates on calming, gentle music, and Samplehound itself which concentrates on more uptempo music, founded on electronica and including elements of rock, jazz, world and classical music. Samplehound is the brainchild of U.K. musician and composer Rich Townsend.
