Biography of Ceephax Acid Crew
Ceephax Acid Crew is an acid house and drum and bass electronic musician named Andy Jenkinson. Jenkinson is also known simply as Ceephax, which is a pun on the BBC teletext service Ceefax. He is the brother of Squarepusher (Tom Jenkinson), and this fact is often mentioned in any press article about Ceephax and his music, and also in negative criticism of the work. Ceephax and Global Goon were housemates.
Career
Ceephax playing a Roland SH-101.Underground record labels Firstcask, Lo Records and Breakin' Records each released music by Ceephax (his first record released when he was 18 years old). The more famous Rephlex Records and even more famous Warp Records both released remixes of Squarepusher by Ceephax which sound nothing like the originals.
Piers Martin interviewed Ceephax in 2000: 'In the earlier days when Tom lived at home, I always used to play about on his synths if he was out,' Andy recalls. 'Obviously Tom was doing loads of music and that was always inspiring, and one day it just clicked for me and I started doing music straight away.'
On Mary Anne Hobbs's BBC Radio 1 show in 2003, Ceephax played unreleased songs. The only way to hear these is through bootlegs or the underground filesharing community Soulseek. Some of Ceephax's music is still only available as poorly recorded bootlegs.
In 2005 Andy Jenkinson acted in short comedy films by Philie T of Chelmsford.
Music
Ceephax's gear.Ceephax's music between 1998 and 2003 took the sonic styles of vintage Roland drum machines TR-909, TR-606, Roland synthesizers TB-303, SH-101, Korg MS-20, and a Roland MSQ-700 sequencer. This music was recorded onto a 4-track cassette tape deck. The music was released on vinyl records and cassette tape. This primitive Acid House aesthetic and methodology countered the growing popularity of the computer music and compact disc releases of the time.
In 2003 Ceephax played songs live on BBC radio from a Commodore 64's SID sound chip, indicating a change in direction from Acid House to Chiptunes. He also releases drum and bass songs made on early Akai samplers with the clichéd and copyrighted 'Amen' breakbeat drum sample, again displaying an interest in 1980s and early 1990s dance music.
Andy has collaborated a number of times with his brother Jonny and Phillie T, all members of the Chelmsford Film Society, in comical side projects such as rap outfit The Odd Job Men and improvised blues project The Chelmsford Blues Explosion.
