At this point in time we’d like to draw your attention to ‘Glass Swords’ the debut album from our compadre Rustie on Warp Records.
Now Rustie is a big reason why our label exists today and his music has been a constant inspiration to us. We released his first eps Jagz The Smack, Zig-Zag and Bad Science on our old labels, Stuffrecords and Wireblock. From the Brunswick to the Berghain he’s been a regular player at Numbers since we’ve begun.
Glass Swords is out on October 10th, it’s strictly bangers from start to finish and you’ll be gasping for more.
Rustie we salute you!
To celebrate we are hosting a party with LuckyMe at Stereo in Glasgow. Check the details here

After taking shape in the studio over the course of the past two years, ‘Glass Swords’ arrives, and as the otherworldly landscape of the album artwork suggests, it is epic and alien.

Glasgow’s talent pool clearly runs deep, and if the city’s last few years of genre-busting electronic music have made anything remotely clear it’s that Rustie is one of the deep-fried kingdom’s crown jewels. Emerging with the rest of the multi-talented Numbers crew, and with only a handful of laser-guided releases to his name, his presence far outreaches his focused, evolving discography. Rightly mentioned in the same breath with many of the most innovative producers in the world, astute Pitchfork scribe Martin Clarke once described Rustie’s music “like a metaphor for living in intense digital excess” – something everyone should be able to relate to.
