the lesser-spotted Fruits de Mers
For my benefit far more than yours, I'm summarising some of the scarce/expensive/hard-to-find items that have seen the light of day since the early days of FdM; some are planned - some aren't - such as the weird colours of vinyl that have escaped, sometimes one-offs. If you spot anything new, or errors/omissions, do let me know
Fruits de Mer is a vinyl-only label, so why is quite a lot of this page given over to Fruits de Mer CDs?
Ah wellll...
Not so much the promo CDs I send out to reviewers and DJs for each new vinyl record, I'm thinking more the short-run CDs I very occasionally slip into Fruits de Mer orders, to promote a new artist, or future release, I'm going to try to build up a list of them before the brain cells give up on me completely. It'll all be pretty random for a while, then maybe I'll be able to sort it into a logical order
...and I've added the highest ebay price I've seen, when I've noticed copies listed (and no, I never sell anything on ebay, so don't blame me); and if i hear of something 'odd' selling on discogs, I'll try to include that too

14th Dream of Dr. Sardonicus
goodie-bag
ebay: £123
all manner of things went into this goodie-bag- actually, it was lots of CDs and, for a few of them (this one included), a 7" single instead of a CD/DVD set - free to everyone at our 2016 summer festival

We had 50 copies for sale exclusively at the 14th Dream festival - mostly black, but there were also a few on clear vinyl - don't ask me how many, but you could ask Phil at 345rpm.co.uk - he cut them; the bands got a few copies each too - they all sold on the day, obviously
Cold Bath +
Insektlife Cycle
lathe-cut 8"
ebay: £81 (black vinyl)
oversized at 8" as we couldn't quite fit the tracks onto a 7" lathe-cut and editing the tracks down would have been far too easy, once again we had 50 for sale at the 14th Dream festival, while each band got a few copies for themselves
The Honey Pot
Ascending Scales
lathe-cut 7"
ebay: £84
A sneak preview of our 100th vinyl release - a year-end double LP; the tracks here featured guests Nick Saloman and Anton Barbeau. We had 50 copies for sale at the 14th Dream festival - mostly black, but a few on clear vinyl

The Sons of MOD
lathe-cut 7"
ebay: £99 (black vinyl)
We had 50 copies for sale at the 14th Dream festival - again, mostly black vinyl but with a few on clear vinyl (AND there were two versions of the sleeve and label artwork too!); the bands got a few copies each too - it's only fair!

lathe-cut 7"
ebay: £91 (black vinyl)
...as i said, we had 50 copies in total for sale at the 14th Dream festival - again, mostly black vinyl but with a few on clear vinyl - this was the other version of the design - we produced less of these, so you won't see many of them about
Soft Hearted Scientists
Exorcising The Demos 1-3 CD
ebay: £13
The Scientists included this CD, which combined the three free-if-you-were-lucky FdM 'demos' CDs, as part of their 'Out To Lunch' 14th Dream special, limited to 33 box-sets - they had a few extras of the CD that they sold to people who asked nicely
Crystal Jacqueline
and the Honey Pot
white gold double 7"
ebay: £39
Record Industry pressed up 100 copies on a white-gold vinyl mix; sold to club members and at our gigs (sadly, the pressing plant has a new minimum order level of 200 for autumn 2017 onwards, so there'll be less of these sorts of things around in future
Sendelica - Cromlech Chronicles
box-set
ebay: £83
we put together 100 box-sets of Sendelica's album, with all manner of good things in there
Sendelica - Cromlech Chronicles

ebay: £32
only a handful of these escaped
Games For May
4CD set
ebay: £116
we gave out about 200 sets free to everyone who attended the Games For May 2016 gig at the Half Moon - so someone has made an infinite profit on their copy

Cary Grace/Consterdine
8" lathe-cut
ebay: £118
our first 8" lathe-cut - the tracks were just too big for a 7"; we sold 50 copies at £10 a time at Games For May 2016, and the artists had a handful of copies each. (a copy mispressed with one side at 33rpm and one at 45 sold on ebay for £94)

UK club members special edition box-set
ebay: £282
Only 100 sets produced for sale to UK club members (plus a few for the band), easily FdM's more over-the-top release to-date, it was a labour of love putting the sets together (a labour, anyway)
Sendelica
Live at Crabstock
special edition box-set
ebay: £196
The first 'Friends of the fish' release, recorded live at Crabstock in 2014 - produced and sold by Sendelica; they put together 40 box-sets with all manner of 'extras', as you can see!

Tir na nOg
You In Yellow
signed poster
not seen on ebay
I thought I'd only asked Sonny and Leo to sign 25 of these, featuring an image from their 'You In Yellow' video, but I see they were numbered up to 45 - maybe i gave the guys some copies; anyway, they've found their way into a few parcels, competition prizes and the like
Craig Padilla
Sonar
special edition
ebay: £50
only 33 set were produced - with a clear vinyl lathe-cut bonus LP featuring previously-unreleased tracks - lovely stuff from the master of the synth
Cranium Pie
Mechanisms Part 1

not seen on ebay
Only 10 were produced by 345rpm.co.uk towards the end of 2015, not intended for commercial release; Ilona kindly recorded a new version of Syd's 'Opel' specially for it; i doubt any will appear on ebay, or anywhere else
Postcards From The Deep
The Final Edition
5 lathe-cut 7" + USB
ebay: £205
again 33 sets produced, very cleverly costing me more than I sold them for - 10 flexis became 5 double-sided lathe-cut 7"s and a fish-shaped USB with all the tracks on it was added in to complete the madness
Stobart 2
The FdM double-decker
not seen on ebay
a Wilkos special!
Only produced as competition prizes for Fruits de Mer club members, they are, of course, absolutely hilarious, witty, subversive and die-cast.
Sometimes I think i really should get out more - but I'd probably only get run over by a bus.

Schizo Fun Addict
'Theme One' promo CD
ebay: £144

The Chemistry Set
'The Endless More And More'
Black vinyl
seen on ebay, but not seen one sold yet
75 copies of The Chemistry Set's album were pressed on black vinyl, instead of gold - you can spot them as there's a sticker on the cover of each one (although not the one pictured!)

Bowie covers
members club CD
alternative sleeve designs
ebay: £30-£50 (depending the sleeve)
About 350 of the CDs were produced in total, including copies that went to the artists;250 of the main design (with the white background) and about 20 each of the other five versions.
the music is idential on all versions
the music is idential on all versions
momentary one

4CD SET

The Mechanisms Tapes on 4CDs - 100 sets for sale - nearly all of them sold out at the 13th Dream - the rest soon after!
The Pretty Things
signed white label LP
ebay: £171
The band signed 100 white label copies of their new LP, which I was able to offer to club members as an exclusive; one or two have found their way onto ebay, but i hope the rest are being treasured by committed FdM fans!
Moloko +
CASSETTE
ebay: £25
We released the Moloko+ tracks on a 7" lathe-cut - and simultaneously Eggs In Aspic released in on cassette - fitting as it's a cassette-only label

PURPLE VINYL
ebay: £231
Andy reckons there were less than 10 pressed on purple vinyl of this early 7"

PURPLE VINYL (again)
ebay: £231 (again!)
and just to add to the feeling of deja vu, Andy says there were less than 10 pressed on purple vinyl of this Vibravoid single
Us and Them
CHARCOAL VINYL
ebay: £133
most copies were ona sork or wispy clear/white vinyl with a hint of black - but about 10 had a much bigger dollop of black throuwn into the mix
Alison O'Donnell
GREEN VINYL
ebay: £14
Andy reckons there were less than 10 pressed on green vinyl of this very early 7" by Alison - all i know is that I didn't get one of them!

about 50 of these were pressed in blue as an apology by the pressing plant to andy for some crappy initial pressings on purple vinyl; this one sold on ebay a long time ago
Stay

SCHIZO FUN ADDICT
RECORD COLLECTOR MAG

A one-off - to celebrate the release of 'Suspiria' - the band signed a copy of FdM 1 and their LP 'Atom Spark Hotel', and I added in a test pressing of their new single. There were also a handful of members club competition prizes and RC runners-up prizes, but only one had the signed copy of FdM 1
