History
[edit]Cantaloupe Music was launched in March 2001 with the release of the Bang on a Can All Stars recording Renegade Heaven. "It's no secret that over the last five years or so, the record industry has been constantly going through shifts," Gordon told Billboard at the time. "Companies are being bought and sold, and it seems to us that there's more emphasis on profitability and very big records. We're trying to build Cantaloupe on a different kind of model — more like a small press that has a long-term relationship with a small number of artists."[2]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
