Re: Bedrock Label Manager Interview

Found this really interesting, seems that Scott has been heavily involved over the years, he must have some great memories and mementoes from his work!

Ditto. Great chilled tracks.

Let's not forget about The Forth, Scott and Andrew Traffik, of Coded/Quad/GU Boxed fame.

I'm really sick if seeing that hand sign

Re: Bedrock Label Manager Interview

Have never seen that hand sign, what is it, an O? B for Bedrock?

Thanks for the very good read. I never knew he was part of the Forth, they had a nice mix out on GU IIRC.

[QUOTE]there is only John and I involved with the running of the label and the webstore and we both share quite a lot of duties. I do find it quite funny at times when people think we have this legion of staff and huge offices in London[/QUOTE]

Had to email the web store once or twice regarding purchase and I remember the first time being surprised it was Dawson who replied, seems like a cool easygoing fella.

[QUOTE]It was great to go Pacha with John last summer and whilst he was playing 2 young girls came over to the booth to see if they could get a picture of John when he’d finished. I started asking them how their night had been and how they’d got into John’s music, turns out they’d wandered into the Bedrock Arena at Global Gathering and had liked what they heard and had soon forgotten about the other stages. They in turn had brought their friends with them whilst on holiday in Ibiza so it was great to see and hear that from a much younger crowd.[/QUOTE]

I guess when you read stuff like this it's pretty cool.

Re: Bedrock Label Manager Interview

i was surprised reading scott worked for Audio Therapy (they had some great releases in their early days, wonder why not available in any download shops) and Quad/Coded as well.

[COLOR=#008080][I]here is another nice interview with the SUDBEAT manager, Graziano Raffa[/I]

Scott got loads of work for 1 person if he does everything involving bedrock recs. (albums, comps, store, events) must be a nice job tho :lol:

Oh, yes, Audio Therapy used to be great.

I remember Tom Middleton doing it on TV around 2003 and it was quite unique, now everyman and his dog is at it. I suppose it's better than seeing a mobile phone in the air.

Maybe the label only had the copyright for a period on time, then it went back to the artist.

Yes and this all looks good in interviews, but then you have to look at how Digweed allows his own forum to be run. Sasha's conduct in the last few months has been questionable, check out the gig in Greece from last week (or the week before). But uncle John's shit is on a whole different level.

Sasha's Greek gig

[QUOTE=♫♫♫♫♫♫;1137053]

[QUOTE]. Hey there, would you be so kind to tell us what exactly was going on yesterday? it made the impression, that you didn't want to play in front of a crowd of 50 people, which is fair enough. but I would just like to hear an honest explanation. I'm a big fan of your music and was very disappointed about last night. [/QUOTE]

[QUOTE] i was the dj before him and supposed after... so what happened.. he and his (technician manager i don't know it was just a kid) came to us before we open and he said that we have a technical problem here etc... there was no problem everything was working great... after i "fixed" that they blamed us that we didn't have an effector and he cannot play without it... but we found one and we solved that also... then he announced that he will not play for just 50 people because it is not good for his career (actually he is not feeling good) ... YOU KNOW WHAT FUCK YOUR CAREER ... i used to be a fan of you.. that night martin garrix took all the people and the legendary sasha was with 50+ people.. it wasn't just 50 its was more actually but people couldnt stay all night waiting for sasha... shame on you man you took your money and you didn't show respect... Nick Warren and Umek was great...[/QUOTE]

For Digweed, pop over to his forum and you will see what I mean.

[QUOTE=Zover;1138615]Sasha's Greek gig[/QUOTE] If he was in the same state he was last time he here maybe they were lucky he didn't play. ;) He did here :(

Re: Bedrock Label Manager Interview

Dunno the details of the Bedrock forum but looks like Diggers wants to shut it down due to negativity and shenanigans, not unlike what MS has gone through? Shrug. Don't really care, doesn't detract from the interview with Scott Dawson.

I think this is the best one I have seen when Sasha is asked about his fans
