Phil Source...........
Source Direct originated back in (1992) as Sounds of Life who were engineered by Rupert Parkes. Now known as
the legendary Photek. Phil’s first ever Sounds of Life tracks were released on Certificate 18 and were supported
immediately by the likes of Grooverider, Fabio, Peshay and LTJ Bukem. They then went on to record tracks for his
own imprint Source Direct in (1994-1999) famous for big tunes like â€Snake style†and “The Crane.â€
Numerous releases on Goldie’s Metalheadz imprint (1995-1998). LTJ Bukem’s Good Looking Records (1995)
and James Lavelle’s Mo Wax recordings (1996) set them up to be approached by Richard Branson’s Virgin Records
and MCA Music Publishing for a major record deal (1996-1999). Having collaborated on two Albums for Virgin by (1999)
and toured the world with the Source Direct sound (1995-1999). They were then asked to produce music for the Hollywood
blockbuster “Blade†featuring Wesley Snipes.
Having had a long break from the Drum and Bass scene.
Phil Aslett is back and his full attention is now focused on his new imprint Vampire Records.
Vampire Records has been set up to release Drum and Bass of all styles and will feature many different artists.
There are going to be many more collaborations on Vampire in the near future so watch this space!
The concept behind Vampire Records is the relation between the nocturnal behaviour of Clubbers and Daywalkers.
