'Fifths' Track Breakdown ft. Rhodes V8 Pro Plugin

The Rhodes Piano V8 Plugin honours the iconic Fender Rhodes keyboard beautifully!
Imagine having a portable Rhodes in your laptop. If only I'd had this plugin back in the early-90's instead of having to lug my Mk1 Stage 88 down the stairs at Bar Rumba every Monday evening for the 'That's How It Is' sessions.

Photek - 'Mine to Give' Deconstruction w/ Ski Oakenfull Ft. Robert Owens & Voice-Swap AI (Live 12)

I fell in love with Robert Owen's voice when I first heard the Frankie Knuckles track 'Tears' and the amazing songs he made withmy hero Larry Heard. So I jumped at the chance to deconstruct a track that Robert had written and sung on, and 'Mine To Give' by Photek seemed the perfect choice. I bought the 12" when it came out in 2001 from the legendary Rhythm Records in Camden, and loved its dubby 909 deep house retro sound.
