photek

he was a badassmuthafucker until "hidden camera"[that was a long time ago]

then it was like he got abducted and they placed a PHOTEK imposter on earth in place of the old one but he was only half as good

his old stuff still holds up and sounds better than most new drum & bass i check

I just enjoy the old stuff, it's enough for me. Form & Function LP is my favourite

I like his new stuff. May not be groundbreaking but I can tap my paw along to it, and shake my snout. And that's good enough for me.

This is like best dnb/jungle track ever made imo.

He needs to release a compilation of his Truper 10"s and other singles from that era.

yeah

i need a collection of all his best singles under all of his different alias'

all this stuff isn't very good

For me, he fell off when he released Solaris. I wouldn't say I don't like his newer stuff because it isn't DnB, I just think it doesn't have the same bite as his early stuff.

It's not 100% clear because he's using l33t breaks combos but I know what you mean. The kick and snare sound a lot like "Soul Pride" by James Brown

the ride is "tighten up" isn't it?

ahh yes, thx guys, THIS is watmm

All this photek talk... I just remembered I had a whole bunch of Penny Black 12s... Not related to Photek but that was the stuff I was into along with Photek back in the day.

I was into Photek back in the day. Modus Operandi was my joint.

Isn't there a real hard, rinsed out remix of this out there somewhere?

Whoever is behind Photek on Facebook posted a Photek's first Essential Mix from 1997. 2 hours long and obviously beast--get in
