Biografía
- Ceephax Acid Crew (often simply credited as Ceephax) is a British acid house, and drum and bass electronic musician named Andy Jenkinson. Jenkinson is also known simply by the pseudonym Ceephax, which is a pun on the BBC teletext service Ceefax. He is..Ceephax’s music between 1998 and 2003 took the sonic styles of vintage Roland drum machines TR-909, TR-606, Roland synthesizers TB-303, SH-101, Korg MS-20, and a Roland MSQ-700 sequencer. This music was recorded onto a 4-track cassette tape deck. The music was released on vinyl records and cassette tape. This primitive Acid House aesthetic and methodology countered the growing popularity of the computer music and compact disc releases of the time. In 2003 Ceephax played songs live on BBC radio from a Commodore 64’s SID sound chip, indicating a change in direction from Acid House to Chiptunes. He also releases drum and bass songs made on early Akai samplers with the clichéd and copyrighted “Amen” breakbeat drum sample, again displaying an interest in 1980s and early 1990s dance music. Andy has collaborated a number of times with his brother Jonny and Phillie T, all members of the Chelmsford Film Society, in comical side projects such as rap outfit The Odd Job Men and improvised blues project The Chelmsford Blues Explosion.̸Albums: * (Untitled) with Drive Time bonus cassette - Firstcask (2000) * Exidy Tours [as Ceephax] - Firstcask (2003) * Ceephax Acid Crew - Breakin’ Records (2003) * Ceephax Acid Crew Part One - Breakin’ Records (2003) * Ceephax Acid Crew Part Two - Breakin’ Records (2003) * Ceeland - Waltzer (2009) * United Acid Emirates - Planet Mu (2010) * Live - Waltzer (2011) EPs and Singles: * Radiotin EP - Breakin’ Records (1998) * Bainted Smile EP - Breakin’ Records (1998) * Acid Quakers 1000 [as Ceephax] - Lo Recordings (2000) * Acid Legacy EP - Breakin’ Records (2003) * Hardcore Wick / Acid Varsity Speciale - First Cask (2006) * Hardcore Esplanade - Bug Klinik Records (2006) * The Crisp Chronicles OST - Frederick (2006)
