In 2008 Chicagoans mourned the loss of Brian Blackeye, the city's first and primary hardcore-jungle MC. To initiate the preservation of his memory in 2009 and beyond, we present the final recording of the full C.H.A. lineup: JJ Jellybean, DJ Snuggles, and MC Blackeye. These previously unreleased tapes were submitted by Dubshack and are exclusive to GoldenEraJungle.com
On Sunday, October 8th, we launch Abstract, Toronto's newest production company. More info about Abstract to come this week!
Massive, get ready for an absolutely tearing Thankgiving Day Weekend event. For this momentous occasion, we present to you Photek for a 3 Hour extended set! No matter what you think you know will be dropped by this legendary artist, no one knows what kind of goodies he will bring out for an extended set.
PHOTEK - 3 hour extended set
[ TEKDBZ | Special Forces | U.K. ]
Photek Productions was launched in 1994 with a loan from the Prince of Wales Youth Business Trust who awarded Rupert Parkes a loan for his business plan. By this point Parkes was established as an important name in the underground drumnbass scene and was receiving strong support of the main dj's and press. Parkes felt it was the right time to have his own label and inprint. The Photek name is based upon the logo that was created by a designer friend. Till then Parkes only named his label Photek, but did not use the name as an artist name.
Only when the profile of the label grew dramatically Parkes adopted the Photek name for himself and it became the artist name he worked under from then on. With legendary tracks like "the Watermargin" and "Rings around Saturn", the label soon became one of the most established labels around remarkably only releasing Parkes' music, other than an undercover collaboration with protege's Source Direct on "The Physical". In 1996 Parkes and his Photek name were snapped up by Virgin records, but his artist deal allowed him to release a limited amount of singles under another alias on his own label. Parkes created the alias Special Forces under which he has been recording besides the Photek name.
Alongside Special Forces, the label started to release music from other artists like Digital and Peshay. Most recently it signed the technically brilliant Teebee and the long lost pioneer of the scene DJ Crystl. Bringing him back to where he belongs; in the studio making wicked tunes.
Photek Productions now also known as Photek Records, based in London has been very active awaiting a Dieselboy remix of Sidewinder and the first upcoming Photek releases on his own label after several years. Photek records has a very strong presence in the world of drum'n'bass, fronting some of the most acclaimed producers in the scene.
Into 2006, Photek has teamed up with the legendary Dj Craze to bring you his latest project, TEKDBZ. Alongside Infiltrata, Hochi, Mental Sharp this all-star crew are pushing the future sounds of Drum & Bass to the next level!
