After beginning life as an experimental side-project for members Paul Maddox and Rich Wakley, Spektre find themselves over a decade later as established and respected features of the Techno landscape.  As a production outfit, they have recently released on such imprints as Elevate, Phobiq and Unrilis, as well as their own Respekt Recordings (now approaching it’s 150th release) to the acclaim of their peers, with the likes of Adam Beyer, Carl Cox and Alan Fitzpatrick among their plaudits. As their near-permanent presence in the Techno download charts confirms, the quality and consistency of Spektre’s studio output is a given.  As performers, Spektre’s unique sound has taken them to some of the biggest and most highly regarded venues worldwide, with frequent bookings by the likes of Space Ibiza, Exit Festival, Pacha Buenos Aires and Burning Man. On stage, their long-standing chemistry and constant desire to experiment always results in an exciting spectacle. Their live exploits are also documented alongside guest slots from esteemed cohorts in a fortnightly Mutual Respekt Podcast, which is syndicated across the globe.

I love to bum grannies behind asda, it feel good.

Loose Connection is the psy trance project of Kris oddity and Simon Morris. Our project is aimed for darker more twisted times of the night where both of our love of psy trance lies.

The idea is to have a hard, high energy feel with deep psychedelic sounds and glitch patterns while played over a fat chunky bassline.
We've both been into music as far back as we can remember.

(Kris) When I was old enough to start developing my taste more in music I listened to lots of stoner rock and punk, until I found my path with electronic music,where I found the likes of IDM, electronica and tech step drum and bass and started joining bands playing bass. I started out in the dance scene in acid techno free parties in the Welsh mountains and warehouses until i met a certain group of friends which introduced me to psy trance and I finally found what I've been searching for. Since then I began to DJ in a local party which my mate Lloyd Positivist and Morris and I put on called "Chaos Theory". I decided that I wanted to create my own spin on what I thought psychedelic music is for me and began writing music on Cubase with Morris. Its now been two years since we started writing tunes together and as the journey unfolds I find myself delving deeper into creation and meeting amazing people along the way.

As for me (Morris) I was never really into music much when I was younger, spent most of my time riding BMX and listening to metal, but then when I was older I discovered a love for dance music after finally getting it. I started off listening to drum and bass then played techno and acid techno for a year or two, playing and partying in warehouses or free parties. I wanted to make music for years but never knew anyone who had the tools to do it, then I met Lloyd Positivist who directed me towards Cubase. Been making music ever since. Made lots of unfinished stuff on my own but then teamed up with Kris February 2009 to start Loose Connection. We seem to click and have the same idea towards a night time sound, which is cool because we have been mates for years! Its been a cool trip so far and have made many more friends in the process. Look forward to meeting more!

these are the sounds I like. you might like them too.
