Customer Highlight — The Mural and The Mint

The Mural and The Mint are dedicated to releasing all recordings for free in some format, because they believe that this is the only way for them to be heard as music. The name for the project came from the city of Philadelphia, home to more murals than any other city in the country, and to the Franklin Mint.

We were honored when Michael Kiley approached us to press the latest release by The Mural and The Mint, As The Eyes of The Seahorse on extremely limited white vinyl.  You can grab a copy at their shows, several of which are this coming weekend.

Customer Highlight — Carpenter

Formed in 2005 from the ashes of some of Vancouver’s biggest post-punk bands (All State Champion/By A Thread/Daggermouth), Carpenter‘s rock n roll assault sprung from singer Daniel Sioui’s obsession with the 1982 John Cougar classic “American Fool”.

Now available from Paper & Plastick — Sea To Sky is available on limited edition peach (and two other mystery colors) vinyl.  Grab one today!

Customer Highlight — Fake Babies

Thanks to Safety Meeting Records for another great project – the Fake Babies LP shipped this week, and while the official record release show isn’t until January 29th, if you hit up Safety Meeting, they just might ship your pre-order early!

Lots of press is available on this record if you don’t know much about the band….including a wild comparison to Devo and Can….  Be sure to grab a copy before the limited first pressing run (hand numbered and CD included) disappears!

Customer Highlight — Zo!

Thanks to Fat Beats for enlisting GGR to press Zo!‘s newest double-LP, SunStorm.

Best known for his 2008 collaboration with Phonte on the cult classic “Zo and Tigallo Love the 80’s” as well as his work on The Foreign Exchange’s Grammy-nominated LP, “Leave It All Behind,” Zo! returns with SunStorm — an extensive 12-track set that shows the ever-expanding range and depth of Zo! and the entire Foreign Exchange Music family.

You can grab a copy today from Fatbeats.com

Customer Highlight — Delicate Steve

We are pumped to announce our very first pressing for the Luaka Bop label – Delicate Steve‘s Wondervisions LP.

Northern New Jersey’s Delicate Steve is the project of (Delicate) Steve Marion, guitarist, composer, and producer.  Without words, Delicate Steve’s songs are incredibly lyrical- each song a concise rock explosion driven by melody.  Steve’s guitar playing and tones have made a quiet revolution within New York’s independent scene with members of Yeasayer, Dirty Projectors, TV on the Radio, Javelin, frequently in the audience.

You can pre-order your vinyl copy now (and get a free 7″ while supplies last), or grab one at independent record stores across the country on 01.25.10!

Customer Highlight — Black Swan

Marking a clandestine arrival out of, seemingly, nowhere, Black Swan emerges from the shadowy billows of smoke to immerse listeners in a lucid, cavernous dream, tracing silhouettes in the darkness with drowning ambience and orchestrated drones that screech and howl intermittently amongst the disorienting magnetic tape disturbances. Black Swan operates under a guise of far-away sounds traveling through murky waters, drowning the listener in its heavy-handed layers of ghostly resonance.

You can purchase a copy of In 8 Movements on vinyl+download from our good friends at Experimedia.

Customer Highlight — The Boyish Charms

Thank you to Talking Helps Records for a second GGR pressing — this time, The Boyish Charms‘ Infinity in its Infancy.

You can grab this and many other Talking Helps Records releases at several cool indie retailers, or by contacting the band.

Customer Highlight — Deep Earth

The Deep Earth Soundsystem Consciousness Network operates out of the southside of Chicago, IL as a rotating hub of ideas based on electronic synthesis, rhythmic maneuvering, and minimal excursions. The personnel currently includes J. Shaver, O. Junker, and T. Janas.

GGR is proud to have pressed Deep Earth’s first vinyl LP release, Nachtmusik —  Four hazy tracks covering 35 minutes were recorded, chopped, screwed, and spit-shined by Mr. Dan Agosto over four sessions spanning three seasons in this year 2010, and the album presents them in their entirety.
