Today
Until today Glitterhouse has released about 750 records. Once a month a mail order catalogue containing approx. 1300 titles is released. Glitterhouse has 10 permanent employees, one apprentice and three interns. These days the “Glitterhouse Projects GmbH & Co KG”, a limited company, governs “Glitterhouse Records” as well as its branches “Glitterbeat” (specialised in world music) and “Stag-O-Lee Records” (specialised in Garaga Rock’n’Roll, vintage R’n’B and everything weird), the “Glitterhouse Mailorder” and the “Orange Blossom Special” open air festival.
Since 1997 the Orange Blossom Special takes place in the backyard of the company office. The annual open air event hosts 1,800 visitors and 20 international bands to create a cosy atmosphere purposely in contrast to strongly commercialized major events.
Rembert Stiewe about Glitterhouse: „Glitterhouse is way more than the sum of its parts. We are family.”

—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Only conservatives believe that subversion is still being carried on in the arts and that society is being shaken by it.... Advanced art today is no longer a cause—it contains no moral imperative. There is no virtue in clinging to principles and standards, no vice in selling or in selling out.”
