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…
Fuchs
Fuchs is a band that never was. It vanished as quickly as it appeared in the picture, much like the animal that can be seen on this album and after whom it was named. In 2005, Kante singer and guitarist Peter Thiessen travelled to Weilheim to visit Markus and Micha Acher in their studio, where they were joined, among others, by Notwist-affiliated musicians like Cico Beck, Robert Klinger, Carl Oesterhelt and Stefan Schreiber. Spirits were high, but schedules were full: after a week of improvised …
Hamburg 1968
*All tracks previously unreleased. Stereophonic sound. In process of stocking* Composer/bassist, Graham Collier’s career was littered with “firsts” – Britain’s first jazz graduate, first jazz musician to be awarded an Arts Council grant, founder of the first full-time jazz degree in the UK. More to the point for our purposes here, he was the first British musician to perform his own music at the Hamburg Jazz Workshop. Collier opened doors to opportunities for himself and other British musicians …
Apatia
*200 copies limited edition* Apathy is a work to be considered "autobiographical". It contains one of the darkest periods in the life of its creator Vintras (Djinn). An endless sequence of fear / sadness / pessimism, which day after day bring the human being into a state of mind of pure apathy. A long hopeless journey, made even more sick by the fantastic collaboration of the American artist Ester Kärkkäinen alias Himukalt.
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…
The Gift of Tears
* 2022 stock. 300 copies, clear vinyl ** Feral Sounds is honored to be reissuing one of the most overlooked releases to come out of the experimental-folk scene of mid-Eighties England. For the first time since it’s original 1987 release, Revolutionary Army Of The Infant Jesus’ The Gift Of Tears is available on vinyl. The Gift Of Tears remains largely unknown, albeit highly sought after in collector’s circles. Originally released on Probe Records in 1987, it remains an undeniably essential arche…
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…
Moves
Toronto-based octet Eucalyptus has been steadily gathering a devoted cult following since the release of their debut 10” Eeeeeuuucaaaaaaallyyypppptus in 2012. Led by acclaimed saxophonist and composer Brodie West, the band's languid, kaleidoscopic jazz is very much a collective endeavour, the product of an internal network of improvisational synergy they've built over more than a decade together. Moves is their sixth release, and somewhat of a milestone. In addition to it being the octet's most …
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 …
Mux
*In process of stocking* Since his Beat Diary debut (a 12xLP box set comprising 365 beats recorded daily over the course of a year), Julian Sartorius has immersed himself in unique and ambitious projects - trekking the path not travelled to arrive at rhythmic life forms through found objects and prepared instruments. Equally as mighty are his two other escapades, the most recent being Locked Grooves - 112 beats cut as endless loops on vinyl spanning 56 dense 1.8 second compositions per side. Pre…
D
*2022 stock.* 'Beginning with moody bass and guitar plucking that wouldn't be a fraction out of place on albums by fellow German musicians like Ash Ra Tempel, D finds Deuter as both an accomplished composer and self-producer. It's not about simply technical virtuosity, of course, as the music throughout D demonstrates. At once epic in scope and with a sly, careful sense of entrancement, this is psychedelic music in the immediately post-psych world. The multi-part "Babylon," which takes up most o…
Anthology Of Post Industrial And Experimental Music From Italy
*In process of stocking* Since the end of the 1970s, industrial music has stood out as one of the most vital and innovative forms of all the popular culture of the 1900s. In Italy, industrial and post-industrial have generated one of the most interesting and popular music scenes on the international scene. The reasons for this success are to be found in the cultural matrix and in the inspirational models that underlie this artistic phenomenon. Unlike what happened previously, the roots of indust…
Nihonjin 日本人
Some albums are certainly a kind of holy grail for music lovers and collectors of a certain genre, style and era. Far Out with their eponymous debut and unfortunately also farewell album from 1973 have created such a sacred gem. Original copies in good condition change hands for up to 2000 USD and there are certainly a few not so official reprints on vinyl and CD out on the market which do not even come close to do justice to the greatness of the old original black gold. But here we go with the …
Kiren
The unreleased 1984 follow-up to the groundbreaking albums Kakashi and Mariah's Utakata No Hibi, Kiren is Yasuaki Shimizu's work for experimental dance music. Employing cutting edge production to create lush new wave soundscapes, it bridges the gap between his early 80s recordings and his later work with the Saxophonettes, filling a key lost chapter in his discography. Full liner notes in English and Japanese by Chee Shimizu.
Overtone Singing: Physics and Metaphysics of Harmonics in East and West
In Overtone Singing, ethnomusicologist and singer Mark van Tongeren provides a fascinating insight into the timeless and universal aspects of sound and vibration. Grounded in a decade-long study of Asian music, he draws upon various fieldwork experiences, interviews with eastern and western musicians, in addition to the work of numerous scholars. He presents a multidisciplinary vision on sound that runs from World and contemporary music to the science of acoustics and perception, to music philos…

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…

Tao Us
* In process of stocking. 75 copies limited edition *
Tao acts without activity or intention,things come from it and receive order.The Tao that can be followed is not the eternal Tao.The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao.The name that can be named is not the eternal name.The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth.
Recorded during a live session in February 2020 at Yekaterinburg, Russia.
Cucumber Sandwich
* In process of stocking. 70 copies limited edition * Originally released on CDR by Music Mundane in 2007. Recorded at home in Nottingham in 1992. Stewart Walden: Casio SA10
Free noise improvisation from the beginning to the end, if it's even ever ending. The sound continues its journey somewhere when the cassette stops. Broken melodies, noises and strange sounds coding the mind while the brains think it's already sleeping. Originally recorded to C90 cassette, but later both sides mixed together…
