Friendly Psychics Music is an independent home-recording collective based out of Dayton, Ohio and Denver, Colorado. Our bands don't practice or play together but rather mail their contributions long-distance and layer the results.

Our groups include A Surplus of 1, Unified Alarm System, Derecho, Dishwater Psychics, The Circuit Riders, Brainswarm, Upstate, Wicked Immigrant, Bullet Gastino and Tarantula Dinner Party. We started in 1999 as the publishing name of Dishwater Psychics and have expanded to include releases from various indie rock, folk and experimental bands.

*Friendly Psychics Music is not a record label, just a collective of like-minded musicians. We do not accept demos, nor are we looking for any new artists. We do love feedback, though.

New releases include discs from A Surplus of 1, Unified Alarm System, Derecho and Brainswarm. Look for the new releases in 2010 from Unified Alarm System, Derecho, the 2nd Friendly Psychics Music Compilation Disc and maybe more... we're also working on a new multimedia graphic novel/album with the good people at (expired link).
