Greenlight Label

Greenlight released it's first tape in 1983, publishing one of Dennis' songs, "In With The Out Takes". This was followed in 1984 by the unreleased Lost Souls' recording sessions. Both cassettes were well received locally, distributed by Important Records out of New York. Los Angeles' Option Magazine, and Gorilla Beat from West Germany reviewed both tapes favorably.

After being reviewed by these international magazines, Dennis was contacted by many musicians and artists throughout the world who were interested in experimental music. Dennis decided to record his own experimental tape, Color with Crayons, which Richie Unterberger of Option Magazine called "the cutting edge of rock" in the 80's and voted it as his #1 favourite tape of the year, in 1985.

Between 1983 and 1990, Dennis released nine solo cassettes and established himself as a well known home taper in the Alternative Underground music scene. His music was played on over 300 College and Public Radio stations, including WFMU in New Jersey, and CKLN in Toronto, Ontario. CKLN in Toronto and WAIF in Cincinnatti, Ohio; both did two hour programs on Dennis's home tapes and sixties music.
