Press Info:
Recollections VII–VIII marks the fourth and final installment in a planned series of 7″ releases, each drawing from Glonti’s expanding archive of Soviet-era recordings. The artwork, created by Dmytro Nikolaienko (Day Night), once again reflects the utilitarian aesthetic characteristic of Soviet-era record design.

In 2018, Glonti began collecting LPs by Soviet-era Georgian composers at Tbilisi’s Dry Bridge flea market. The records primarily consisted of classical and chamber music released by Melodiya, the USSR’s sole state-owned record label. Through this process, the concept for Recollections emerged, with Glonti aiming to create a body of work built from samples sourced from his growing collection.
