Behind the Scenes:

I met Sir Larsie I in summer 2003 and he presented me some dubplates. I was blown away and after I decided to release more than just the first 7", I asked him if he's interested. He was and he also provided a special remix by Dubcreator.

I chose Duophonic as pressing plant and the work with them was smoothly. Unfortunately, there was a misunderstanding concerning the playtime of a 12". Therefore the tunes are faded out although it was a 33.3 RPM pressing which means it wasn't necessary to fade them out. But well...

The first pressing was sold out quite soon but due to a lot of promos, there didn't come much money in. By special request, I repressed the release half a year later and that sold better, so that at the end, I was

The first pressing also had really cheap stickers on them which were printed out with a normal ink printer. For the second pressing, we used a professional laser printer which looked much better.
