GIZZMOIX started in the smallest way possible - late nights in a bedroom, experimenting with 8-bit sounds and pushing them onto Game Boy cartridges just to see what would happen.
It was raw, curious, and completely driven by passion rather than plans. Those early releases felt more like secret artifacts than products, shared among a small circle who understood the charm of lo-fi limits and playful experimentation.
Nin-do and music have always played a huge part in my life - from playing Mario Party with cousins you rarely see anymore to eventually booking your own punk shows. So why not combine both passions?
To celebrate five years of Gizzmoix Records, I’m releasing six projects by bands that massively impacted my life - flashed, cut, and assembled by hand onto custom Nin-do DS cartridges. Each album comes with its own little story, a snapshot of a memory, a feeling, or a time that stuck with me.
Go rock the new GIZZMOIX “I ONLY LISTEN TO EMO ON DS” shirt!!!
I don’t really want to spell out what these records and the people behind them mean to me. Some are people I met at shows, some are the reason this label exists at all, and some are legends I held onto when my first real heartbreak hit at sixteen. That meaning is mine, but what matters more is what they become to you!
At the end of the day, I’m just one guy shipping records, contacting bands, and doing the occasional graphic design. I hope you take these releases, sit with them, and make your own memories. That’s what this has always been about.
GIZZMOIX will always be a 100% DIY passion project.
That’s exactly why so many of these releases exist in collaboration with labels from all around the world - without them, this label wouldn’t stand a chance.
Huge shoutout to: Hunkofplastic Records, Desperate Infant Records, BSDJ label, Oliver Glenn Records, Best Life Records, I Am Home Here Tapes, Erich Fried Records, Dancing Rabbit Records, Dying Dutchman (RIP), Self Versed Records, Milkcrate Merch, See You Next Summer (RIP), and many more.

Emo revival didn't just happen in the US.
A good example is this killer record from düren/cologne, Germany released 2013. Beautiful overlayed vocals, twinkly riffs and the occasional scream. A true hidden gem!

15 years of the draft by football, etc. 🏈🎊
Originally released in March 2011, The Draft arrived near the leading edge of what would become known as the emo revival. Recorded live over a few days in Norman, Oklahoma with engineer Trent Bell, the album captured guitarist/vocalist Lindsay Minton, bassist Mercy Harper, and drummer James Vehslage tracking together with minimal overdubs, sleeping in the studio between sessions. The result was a ten-song debut that balanced angular guitar work, shimmering melodies, and raw, emotionally direct songwriting. The record–and especially the track “Safety,” has continued to find new listeners in the years since its release.
Gizzmoix will carry 25 blue, 25 gray and 12 black vinyl records.
Big thanks to @ritefieldrecords and @recountyourluckystars

Chaotic Hardcore for the Skramz kids!
Kicked in the Head by a Horse is a Pittsburgh hardcore quartet formed in 2022, blending death metal, mathcore, and skramz into a chaotic yet intentional sound that tackles themes like gender equality, mental health, and personal grief. Crushing riffs, experimental structures, and raw emotional honesty that solidify their place in the city’s heavy music lineage.
For fans of Converge, The Callous Daoboys, Jesus Piece, Capra, and early Code Orange.
