They are best known for 76:14, an ambient album that sits alongside the likes of FSOL's Lifeforms and Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works 85-92, as one of the high-points of ambient composition within UK '90s electronic music scene.
As Global Communication they have released two studio albums. The first, in 1993: a full album remix of Chapterhouse's Blood Music, entitled Pentamerous Metamorphosis, and their masterpiece of ambient house, 76:14, in 1994.
Their EP releases include: Keongaku EP in 1992, Maiden Voyage in 1994, The Way / The Deep in 1996, and The Groove in 1997.
To date, Global Communication has released four compilations: a remix album entitled Remotion in 1996, a DJ mix album entitled Fabric 26 in 2006 (1/2 by Mark Pritchard, 1/2 by Tom Middleton) and in 2011 another DJ Mix entitled Back In the Box . Their two studio albums have also seen reissues: Pentamerous Metamorphosis remastered and in a slightly edited version in 1998, and 76:14 in 2005 (a 10-year anniversary remastered re-release, with additional content on a bonus CD). 2020 saw the release of newly remastered editions of 76:14 and Pentamerous Metamorphosis, alongside another compilation of singles and remixes, compiled in the boxset "Transmissions."
As a duo, Middleton and Pritchard have also recorded as, Jedi Knights, kickstarting a new electro revival in '95, Secret Ingredients, The Chameleon making drum-n-bass, Reload & E621, and Link & E621. Together they formed the Evolution Records/Universal Language Productions Record label(s).

This was originally a remix of 'Love on a Real Train' for a Tangerine Dream remix album but it got rejected so Global released it anyway (without crediting them lol). Glad they did as I love it.

I love watching trees outside being gently moved by the refreshing wind, while I’m listening to Global Communication’s 5:23!

Beautiful track and a tribute to Tangerine Dream's Love on a Real Train.

Listening to music like this makes me feel as if I'm seeing the entirety of the human race in an instant. All of the anguish, happiness, evil, and hope all just dust in the wind against the back drop of the infinite universe. But it feels as if it's fighting back. As if it's fighting to be valid. To be defiant against a universe that's indifferent to our existence.
