I chose to subscribe since these guys only press 500 copies per releases. Each time, it's a surprise what i'll receive. Great choices of music, sleeves make of quality cartboard and only € 19,95 per release. A bargain!
Hans Reatsch
Each release is a surprise and not for sale anywhere else. I haven't received any disappointing releases so far. Furthermore, I'm really excited about the uniformity in artwork, we're building a unique series of vinyl records that look great in my collection.

Our 5 releases so far
One Week Wonder - Mars
FFHR005
One Week Wonder is the next big thing from Iceland. Yes, Iceland. The tiny country with the extremely rich history (and future) in music. Our three guys from One Week Wonder are inspired by the likes of Pink Floyd, Ennio Morricono and Air. They prefer to record their tracks on an old-skool, 24-track tape recorder. This sound has already led them to perform at SXSW, Icelandic Radio, Airwaves Festival and we are extremely proud to release their debut EP on vinyl with Final 500 Records.

Trip To Dover - Fade Into Gold
FFHR004
Fade Into Gold, Trip To Dover’s newest record is a new chapter following a long period of grief and pain. On the one hand, the record is about not knowing what the future will bring, but on the other side also about continuing to breathe and embrace whatever the future holds for you. This Dutch indie-electro duo previously resided in Brighton for a couple of years and produced a great indie record with Fade Into Gold. A record that reminds us of The Naked and Famous, CHVRCHES and The Killers.

Satellites - Satellites.04: GLITCH
FFHR003
Johnny Vic from England (and living in Copenhagen) is SATELLITES. He has written, played every note and self-produced two critically acclaimed albums (Rough Trade top Album of the Year).
Late last year, a family trauma stopped him in his tracks and prompted him to a write a whole other record in the hiatus: SATELLITES.04: GLITCH.
“As you might imagine, it’s pretty personal stuff. I make no apology if it’s not exactly easy listening. But these feelings needed to come out. I just can’t ignore the songs.”
