Note: this rather unknown duo from Sheffield, UK, released these two rare cassettes in 1980 & 1982 with incredible low fi tape-sound, based on 'tape loops, home made synths, samples, random radio frequencies and a legendary Shergold guitar' - nowadays it appears to be rather subtle, foggy and melancholic, a very strange sound from the beginnings of the home-taper scene.. lim. ed. 500 copies, gatefold cover, certificate

More Info

"In the heart of Sheffield's electronic / industrial music scene of 1979, Peter Bargh and Mark Holmes created the experimental project Mein Glas Fabrik. This VOD release is a combination of their two cassette albums, recorded on simple equipment using tape loops, home made synths, samples, random radio frequencies and a legendary Shergold guitar. Death TV was favourably reviewed in local fanzine "Tigers on the Moor", Exotic Percussion followed soon after. While influenced by a wide spectrum of musical genres, Mein Glas Fabrik created a fusion of sounds, not adhering to any specific genre...expect the unexpected!"
