Background
Photek aka Rupert Parkes is without doubt the most exciting and
original drum & bass artist to emerge in the last 2 years. From his early
days on his own Photek label and Certificate 18 as studio Pressure he
has pioneered the more thoughtful jazz influenced jungle made
popular by LTJ Bukem, goldie and others. Indeed he has recorded for
both Good Lookin' and Metalheads respectively.
Before he signed a major 5 album deal with Virgin this year he
recorded this unique and exclusive EP for OP-ART.
