Studio Pressure: Relics (Natural Mystic mix) (Certificate 18, 1996) I went down to the basement looking for a book and found a pile of CDs in a small, rather dusty looking box. There were some horrible old mix CDs in there and a pile of risible magazines (some of which I used to work for), but this caught my eye. Studio Pressure is Photek by another name. When I was still working in the record

Something that's been interesting me of late is how certain musical concepts from way back are being blended into newer styles and being heralded as progression when in fact the idea may be over ten years old. So in dubstep say, we had the minimal techno element (early 90's or earlier), wonky...

My first encounter with dubstep was hearing this album back in the late summer of 2005. I’d been an enthusiastic drum and bass fan back in the mid to late nineties, especially the more rhythmically complex and bass heavy stuff such as Photek, Source Direct, Tech Itch, Dom and Roland etc. But as the rhythms [...]

Riding on the coat-tails of Kittens‘ post on Photek, I couldn’t help but put something up about Dieselboy’s latest mix CD, ‘Substance D’, (A reference to Philip K. Dick’s novel, ‘A Scanner Darkly’) as I’ve been bumping this HARD in my car since its release a few months back. A 2-disc compilation of unrelenting drum and [...]

Riding on the coattails of the last post, where we shared a remix from British producer Photek of electronic-punkers The Faint, I’d like to share another from the crates—A dusty 1996 gem known as ‘Single (Photek Remix)’ for archetypal electronic-pop group Everything But The Girl. Lead singer Tracy Thorn (perhaps known to our readership as [...]

Omaha, Nebraska’s The Faint, those loveable champions of contemporary new wave rock & roll music (often re-branded as “dance-punk” or “electro-indie”) have returned with ‘The Geeks Were Right’, the tip of the iceberg that is one majorly anticipated cool record, The Faint’s upcoming fifth studio release, ‘Fasciinatiion’. The faint freed themselves from their long-time position on [...]

Flora Macneil: Craobh Un Ubhal (Tangent, 1977) I found this bag of LPs I used to DJ with downstairs. When I say "DJ", I think it's clear from the records themselves that I was never going to get a gig at, well, anywhere really. Perhaps a very lenient pub on a particularly quiet Tuesday lunchtime, but that's about it. I mean, there's some Herbie Mann in there, there's Jimmy Ponder's Mean Streets,

Here’s the challenge. You have to photograph small items for Ebay or for clients’ brochures. Lighting them can be challenging. Small reflective items usually exhibit specular highlights that must be controlled. If you add a product/shooting tent to the equation, your job is made dramatically easier. A product tent is made of the same translucent cloth material that is used for [...]
