76:14 is a 1994 ambient music album by Global Communication. Originally released on Dedicated, the album has been re-issued a number of times, most recently in 2005 in a remastered and expanded version.

The title of the album is the total length of the album in minutes and seconds. Each track on the album is untitled, or, more accurately, titled simply with the length of the song.

In 2005, the album was reissued with a bonus disc featuring singles released before and after the album, as well as enhanced packaging and new liner notes from the group and notable fans of the album. The bonus tracks are notably much more in the vein of house and jazzy techno than the more ambient, mostly beatless album.

The album is featured in The Guardian's "1000 albums to hear before you die" list. It is described as an "unfathomably beautiful out-of-time masterpiece"[1].
