It has been a few months since my blog was last updated. So for those of you who have been spared my relentless assaults on facebook and soundcloud lately...let me bring you up to date.
My first physical VINYL record is to be released in a matter of weeks now. It has taken all summer to get sorted as i have been taking my time coordinating everything between myself, Will.. who runs our website (version 2 on the way) and the pressing plant.
The Test pressings have all sounded great just some minor adjustments had to be done. The style is a blend of old-school electro, breaks, acid and industrial. A testament staying true to my older underground electronic roots. This project has been in the making for several years now and i must say it feels good to finally get it done.
Test pressings minus the few i kept for myself were all sent to DJs i respect for feedback and to mix and results were positive. Particularly from my agents in Brussels were criticism can be pretty brutal. Oh..and my girlfriend likes it (and she rarely sings musical praises eh ?...haha.x)
The pictures on here are in my home studio with my friend Craig, whos been one of me closest mates since i came back to the uk many years ago. we made some noisy shit together for a few years before i got all "serious" ;) ... many thanks to him (naturally he got a test press)
while im here i would also like to thank the people who taught me my trade. Tim day, Chris Bunce, Dave sibley, Steve...Matt hodson, Phil Bodger and Stace Constantinou...in particular Tim for being the most enthusiastic teacher i have ever met. and to all my friends, family, all loved ones.
Force of Nature represents many things to me. The main has been essentially survival...and overcoming the odds. This vinyl is dedicated to all the freaks out there. long live the underground.
