Dale Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Does anyone have Skam's email address? (I couldn't find it on their website) It might be a good idea to contact them and ask when it will be released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest username7410 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 ANd to think people were saying this was Gescom or BoC last year. It sounds nothing like either of those bands. I don't know... BoC maybe. Does anybody know for sure it's not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anybody know for sure it's not? from what i've heard said on messageboards and shiz, it's a guy from Blackpool, England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redruth Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 VHS HEAD SPECULATION VHS Head is a mysterious Blackpool, UK native producer signed to Skam Records.Rumors are flying around that VHS Head is a secret moniker of the amazing Jackson & His Computer Band.I had the pleasure of checking out Jackson’s DJ set as he opened for Justice this last week in NYC at Webster Hall.Not what I was expecting from Jackson, but it was a DJ set full of electro blog-haus bangers even Benny Benassi’s“Satisfaction” which got all the br0s dancing/moshing. It’s too bad none of audience knew who he was to reallyappreciate his genius. Justice essentially took Jackson’s production style of micro-sampling/cut and paste,collage style. Just take a listen to Jackson & His Computer Band’s song “Hard Tits” and tell me that track didnot heavily influence Justice’s “Valentine”. Checkout photos from the Justice/Jacksonshow @ Webster Hall on here courtesy of Mr. Nicky DigitalAnyway back to VHS Head – at first listen it does sound very similar to Jackson’s work but I feel likeit is would be a step backwards for Jackson to produce tracks such as these. Either way I am a big fanof this chopped up beats and samples production style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Backson Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Not what I was expecting from Jackson, but it was a DJ set full of electro blog-haus bangers even Benny Benassi’s “Satisfaction” which got all the br0s dancing/moshing. that's a bit sad to hear. nothing against Ed Banger electro, but it feels like Jackson is being dissuaded from complex amazing stuff just because the audiences want N0IZE. Plus, I felt his recent Kavinsky mix was too simply an punchy, lacking his fantastic mutant beat and chaotic production. I'm hoping his remix was so simple because he had little time, or just because it was for a popular club release. i'm still convinced it's jackson. at any rate this new album is very good news. i spoke to VHS on myspace. he said he's busy with things "not just music" but there might be something coming... and Jackson has said 6 months or so for his album.

mcbpete Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Sorry for the 3 year bump but just found this which appears to have been ripped by our very own Craig Anderson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59MzWdGWfkU (ffwd to 0:43) erm, apologies if this is well known - I'll remove it if so.

Caretstik Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Good spot. I'm a Robert Altman fan and had Streamers on VHS yonks ago but still never picked up on where that had been lifted from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
