The work of Philip Jeck, an English composer and multimedia artist, is best recognized as work influenced by broken, antique sounds married with analogue and digital effects. This approach has always been the birthplace of Jeck's exploratory music. As both a creator and musician, Jeck manipulates and plays with contrasting musical textures such as damaged vinyls and faulty devices. His best known work, Vinyl Requiem (1993) demonstrated the exploration of turntables from the 1950s and 1960s. Through his unique style and approach, Jeck wished to portray the periodic progression of a fading culture as media and music gradually evolved.
