In The Bunker

In The Bunker

Reading Time: 3 minutesI’ve been down to a couple of events recently to shoot for the promoters.  Bunker 13 is a night at Eiger Studios in Leeds, playing industrial, EBM, dark electro and aggrotech. I’d seen flyers for this night, and aimed to check it out as I like the

Reading Time: 4 minutesMy aim on this walk was to join the canal at the end of Thornes Lane Wharfe, and so complete the Wakefield end of the Calder Hebble Navigation, but this appearded to have been cut off, I guess due to damage to the tow path.

Rave and Respect

Reading Time: 5 minutesWhat upsets me here is that what has been gained from this? An charity event has lost a set of images which I provided to them pro-bono to help them as a crew and promote the work they did. I will obviously not be shooting their events again, as it seems internal politics have led to a situation where members of the promotional team do not know what other members have agreed, and I don’t really want to be working in that situation. One less club on the list for me, one less photographer on the list for them. The DJ himself has lost the use of the image he wanted to use in the first place and the possibility of some future collaboration. Because of nothing more than a kickback about giving proper credit.

And that helps the music scene how?

Reading Time: 2 minutesI have been out and about in the clubs again recently with this set from Sunrise at the West Indian Centre. Not a massive amount to say really, other than that I am quite proud of the set I got from here.

A Detached Night

Reading Time: 2 minutesThis night was quite interesting as a photographer. I felt off all night – my back hurt and I had a dodgy stomach. I’ve managed some quite good shots, but it is interesting that in many of them my detachment from the night comes out

Reading Time: 3 minutesEvery year, Beaver Works which is one of the venues I shoot at regularly, hosts a ‘Mad Friday’ party, bringing together many of the events which take place there throughout the year. This year the event fell on my birthday, so I had to go,

Dirt Vs WYTM

Reading Time: 2 minutesThis was an interesting and challenging night. It’s a new night at Beaverworks, where I often shoot and had the interesting set up of a Metal and Alternative night (with live bands) at the top, and a techno night in the basement. There is actually
