Ten Minutes to Midnight
Marco Farina's debut is a masterwork of subtraction. It burns quietly through different ideas, drawing across the electronic scene its intimate trajectory - bright and sharp as a shooting star. Eight pieces of research-based wishful thinking, shaping our horizon with their emotionally charged impact.

*In process of stocking. 200 copies limiteed edition* The four pieces on this CD were written during travels, moving between places or being on the move. The first rough sketches have been developed further in different situations until they reached the final shape that can be heard on the album. These formations came about after many mood swings and rethinkings. Sometimes, the way to the final results was long, depending o the mood in the very moment, while working on the music. The manifestati…

Love Is Fine
*10 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* This record is dedicated to Mark Hollis. It was thought for a long time and realized in four days of April in Quarto Escuro, in Porto. Everything at the first take, recorded with a lot of love and an unbelievable group of people. It was supposed to be ambient, but it ended up being free. The name is stolen from "Come Mellow, Love is Fine", a beautiful twistedfreak loop.
Composed and produced by Sal Grosso. Performed by Sal Grosso (electronics, …
& Fantasmas
*In process of stocking* Colectivo Casa Amarela, Combustão Lenta Records and Favela Discos present & Fantasmas by Sã Bernardo. Recorded live in Damas by Raphael Soares & Leonardo Bindilatti.
Music For Listening
*In process of stocking* Music For Listening, the sophomore album by Michael Scott Dawson. The album is comprised of twelve ambient works for guitar. It follows his 2020 debut Nowhere, Middle Of which was built around generative synths. Not wanting to repeat himself, Dawson entirely abandoned the synthesizer, his primary instrument, on Music For Listening. The resulting guitar pieces lean heavily on tape loops and manipulations, and are accompanied by field recordings and spare piano elements. T…
The Patience Fader
The glacial distillation of Pan American aka Mark Nelson’s “romantic minimalism” achieves unique fruition on his latest Kranky collection, The Patience Fader. A suite of solo guitar instrumentals accented with lap steel, harmonica, and twilit atmospherics, the strings smear and sparkle in elegant, windswept swells, a guitar mode once described by Brian Eno as “Duane Eddy playing Erik Satie.” These are elegies as much as songs, lulling and lilting in private currents of beauty and bereavement. Ne…
Greenpeace
*In process of stocking* In 1997 and 1998, the late great Japanese composer, producer, and DJ Susumu Yokota released two of the most eclectic albums of his decades-long career, Fruits of The Room and Greenpeace. Recorded under his Stevia alias for Tokyo Techno pioneer DJ Miku’s Newstage Records/NS-COM, they were Yokota-san’s homage to the foundational days of club music in Japan.
This year, Glossy Mistakes are proud to present the first official vinyl editions of Fruits of The Room and Greenpeac…
Metamorfosi Asincrona e Discontinuità Biologiche
*200 copies limited edition* Hot on the heels of some striking recent productions, Corrado Altieri (Uncodified, Candor Chasma, Monosonik, TH26) and Paolo L. Bandera (Sigillum S, SSHE Retina Stimulants, Iugula-Thor, Ensemble Sacrés Garçons and much more) join forces for a brand-new collaboration, deploying audio science-fiction with a profound body horror obsession, in love with the intoxicating radicalism of extreme sound tissue surgery. Recorded, manipulated and assembled through a three-year p…
Sands Of Time - Selected Studio & Concert Recordings 1974-1990
*2022 stock.* 'Deuter has so much material available that it's best to start with one of several compilations of his work. Although Call of the Unknown is also a fine introduction to his music, the double-disc Sands of Time is really the best choice for several reasons; first because it features some of his most recent compositions (including a selection taken from his video soundtrack to The Petrified Forest) that you won't find on any other recording. The first disc also offers a balanced pres…
Call Of The Unknown - Selected Pieces 1972-1986
*2022 stock.* By the mid 1970's Deuter was fully formed as a composer, having jettisoned the rougher edges and rather derivative prog and Krautrock elements of his first few albums. The albums listed above date mostly from his heyday spanning 1976 to the late 1980's and appear on Celestial Harmonies sub-label Kuckuck. During this period he spent much of his time in Poona, India as a student of controversial guru Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh. The inspiration flowed and some truly great music was born.

Hyakunin Isshu
"Prolific and singular producer Hoshina Anniversary presents Hyakunin Isshu, a two tracker of extended jaunts deeper into the mystery than he’s yet dared to venture. With a growing reputation for sizzling productions combining propulsive house rhythms with gyrating arpeggios and textured sound design punctured by jazz-inflected keys, Hyakunin Isshu further expands the limits.
On Hyakunin Isshu, Hoshina Anniversary paces it out over the course of two complimentary side-long runs. The A side Karak…
Arabia Per Delfina
*300 copies limited edition* Random Numbers is proud to present the latest release of fellow Italian Steve Pepe, real name Manuel Cascone. After some brilliant EPs on Hivern Disc, Macadam Mambo and inside Out Records, we are honoured to have him over for the album that has already enchanted us. "Arabia per Delfina" opens the dance with a languid sound, which slithers in slowly but persistently. Protagonist is a solitary synth whose bright and sensual frequencies rise from the darkness, lighting …
1/2 Alive
“Lester Bangs liner notes place Suicide in its proper historical context: A document of a force of nature – the filthy loud subway station heart of NYC. Suicide pioneered everything from synth-pop to industrial disco – low rent electronic angst-fest. Vega runs rough shod over the whirring blast of Rev’s homemade synth.” – Rolling Stone Record Guide
Ghost Riders
*2022 stock * 'Suicide took mid-70's NYC underground attitudes to extreme, but logical, ends. Singer Alan Vega's often terrifyingly apocalyptic vision was perfectly complimented by keyboardist Martin Rev's pulsating, sizzling accompaniment on rhythm box and synthesizer. Their psychotic electronic blues was the sound of American culture sliding towards destruction. On stage, they were routinely heckled by audiences unappreciative of their minimalist explorations (they actually incited riots while…
Queen of Nowhere
»Queen Of Nowhere« is the result of the photographic works by Kourtney Roy and the musician Dayve Samek (Trance Farmers). Samek has recorded his first album in 2014 on Leaving Records (Stones Throw Records). His music ranges between sweaty, garage-born ballads brush shoulders with drifter anthems and gasoline drenched doo wop with at some points some beats close from the past Anticon works. The Canadian photographer Kourtney Roy was born in Northern Ontario in 1981. She conjures an intimate univ…
Même Soleil
** 400 Copies ** Même Soleil" is the result of a dialog between the French photographer Gaël Bonnefon and the French musician Frédéric D. Oberland initiated by IIKKI, between December 2019 and June 2021. "Fueled by travels and their emanations, Frédéric D. Oberland’s music had to build new horizons this year, outlined by the curves of semi-modular synthesizers, the avalanches of effect pedals and the zigzagging paths of electric circuits. Même Soleil, his third solo album, manages to merge mysti…
Moiety
Originally released in 2012 on the artist's own Unseen label only in digital formats, »Moiety« by Helios aka Keith Kenniff is finally getting its physical release in a new 2022 vinyl edition, remastered by Taylor Deupree. In 2012, Kenniff shared this free, digital-only collection, which marked a notable shift in pace, both in output and style. Slower, more meditative than past work, Moiety honed in on Kenniff's proclivity as an ambient producer.
Soul Moth
* Edition of 200. In process of stocking * The Parels (Jim Goodall and Eddie Ruscha) are back with a new LP of morphing 5th world psychotropic music. All manner of bizarre forms take shape and shift throughout the proceedings journeying through exotic psych, swamp funk, musique concrete, and acoustic miniatures all held together by a biomorphic DNA strand that resides somewhere in a subterranean alien cocoon.
Sun Damaged Crown
* In process of stocking. 80 copies limited edition * Recorded by Neil Campbell December 2021 using Bugbrand Weevil, effects, guitars acoustic and electric, pianos toy and thumb, fiddle and multifarious percussions.
