A mixtape tribute to the shortest day of the year. The 2nd edition of our staff curated now on Numero mixtape series just dropped, this one dedicated appropriately to all the parts of winter. We only made two copies and are giving one away. Drop a cold comment and we'll get this mailed out to the "winner" in the new year. Everyone else can dial in on the NON playlist.

Happy National Emo Day Eve to all who celebrate.

Just back from the screen print shop. Don't think we can get these assembled in 2024 but shooting for Jan 1 in your email. Set an alarm.

Bliss Out For Days (Numero’s guide to Private Issue New Age) gathers 18 disparate vibes from across the genre so you don’t have to take out a second mortgage collecting tapes.

Tis the season. Less than a week away from National Emo Day so what better time to drop this supreme collection of The Hated's final recordings. Time travel to 1989 across the audio, visual and oral history and go even deeper with the double cassette of unreleased, unheard, strictly analog special bonus bang.

Majesty Crush is back with a new track and to celebrate they've invited you over to borrow a CD from their personal collection. What are ya grabbin?

Who flipped it best? Cults, TV Girl, Kenny Beats and Andras give their take on Shira Small's Eternal Life. I'm partial to the absolutely incredible original version but all these are nice. Thoughts?

Florida’s early emo holy trinity; Don Martin Three, Hope Springs Eternal, Moonraker. Has there ever been a better three way split 7”?

RELAX: Death is a soft white foam. Not meant to be a scary statement, but you'll have to read on to catch the full drift. New Age can be intimidating for the unanointed but there's a reason it's enjoyers always seem to be riding some other, chill, wave length. We're here to help.

With the Bliss Out For Days 2xLP, we wanted to put together a primer and give a proper *glimpse* into the private press new age scene. 18 samples of artists and tracks that are definitive to the scene alongside a 30 page booklet with toe dips into each and every artist and original release.

We specifically decided to make this a December release. As the days continue to grow shorter for a few more weeks, this album can bring a little extra light to those darker days. It's the perfect listening experience to cap a year off and start a fresh one, freshly.

We hope you love it.

Duster sent a few hand-painted editions of their new album In Dreams which drops today. If you want one, let us know.

Only 20 days left to freak out the squares with non-traditional holiday music. Let us help: The complete Numero yuletide discography, on sale for $30 while supplies last.

Crimpshrine, Berkeley, California, 1986-1989. Best band on Lookout!? Top wrong answer gets a Duct Tape Soup LP.

Had to share the latest in the disco jazz collection. Not sure if any are left at the warehouse but we have a few at our shop in Chicago. Closed this week but back next Friday.

Throwback to those four hours when we had Frail LPs in stock. What band should grace our next hand-screened edition?

11/20/2024

The 90 Day Men: We Blame Chicago boxset was recently nominated for a Grammy. Massive props to Rebeka Arce and Farbod Kokabi on their Numero Group design debut. It's been an awesome ride working on this set and can't wait to cap it off while capping off the whole year next month at Empty Bottle here in Chicago.

You are going to want to check the site for this one. Venomous Tex-Mex R&B and early rock n' roll from San Antonio's West Side scene. From 1961-67, Bexar county kingmaker Abe Epstein cut every teen combo to grace the Patio Andaluz stage, launching the careers of Doug Sahm, The Royal Jesters, Sonny Ace, The Dreamliners, and hundreds more throughout the decade. Spread across two luxurious slabs of vinyl, The Cobra Label compiles 28 neurotoxic sides from Epstein's first bite in the biz.

A fitting capstone for this insane run of these 2024 Eccentric Soul pieces celebrating 20 years of highlighting the obscure, overlooked and straight dismissed sounds from the underground way before that term even existed.

Bells On Trike’s 1996 10” was issued in a handful of different covers. The second slide is what our brand new digital remaster looks like (stream it everywhere). Thinking of doing a hand screened edition… which cover should we use?

Time to unpack the suitcase from our world pop up tour. Thanks to everyone who laced us up this fall.
