Loefah was talking to Benji B on his Swamp showcase this summer about signing someone who has been a legend in the dnb scene.

Considering only Benji has Photek's new dubs +plus the slower tempos on these tunes, do you think Photek could be the one Loe was talking about?

fingers crossed he is

*EDIT: PHOTEK TRIPLET

Photek — Avalanche – dubplate
Photek — 101 – dubplate
Photek — This City – dubplate

as long as it's more reminiscent of his older stuff i'm hopefully
form vs function 2 was a let down

Benji B on Radio1 - (101) radio premier


Mary Anne Hobbs @ Music Hall of Williamsburg NYC
New Photek track dropped (Avalanche) - worldwide premier

hmmm kinda reminds me a bit of the solaris lp and a bit of the newer stuff
could go either way though i liked solaris a lot more than a lot of people

love the first track
looking forward to hearing more

One of my fave photek tunes, absolutely amazing! It could be a Pinch tune couldn't it...from 13 years ago.

Absolute legend

Got this on repeat. Really feeling it.

when i first started listening to photek i wanted to marry his brain. so many incredible beats. i dont even care that the basslines ar lacking, the beats are just so so good



i'm assuming everyones seen this before. if not then give it a little look. the squarepusher part and source direct part are great too.

Modus Operandi is a stone cold classic.

Be interesting if Photek ventures into the world of 140.

Tbh I really don't think Photek is gonna release on Swamp becaaausseeeee.

"Zed Bias, star of a recent XLR8R podcast, is a man who operates under many monikers, including Maddslinky and Funk Bias. The latter is actually a collaboration with production partner Funk Butcher, a Rinse FM host and purveyor of house and broken beat sounds. It's been confirmed that the two have a release forthcoming on Loefah's Swamp 81, and Zed got us hip to some of their tracks on his podcast. But Funk Butcher also has his own story to tell, most currently with this re-interpretation of late-'80s Chicago disco/house singer Loleatta Holloway's "Love Sensation." Riding Butcher's own "Sinister Boogie," Holloway sounds both classic and of-the-moment over Butcher's warm, chopped, garage-style organs and plush high-hats. There's still no word on the date of Swamp 81's Funk Bias release, but we do know their track "Last Forever" has made the cut. Listen back to the Zed Bias podcast for a preview of that, and download Funk Butcher's "Sinister Boogie/Love Sensation" right here."

That would make sense of who Loefah was talking about.

Swamp is a great place for Photek. Solaris was way ahead of it's time, I was listening to it the other week and realized how much I enjoy that album. I agree that Form and Function Vol. 2 was a HUGE let down, but let's hope that this new stuff is the bee's knees.





Also, how many of you remember this tune
