Steve Spacek on the Space Shift Album, Gospel and Church
November, 2005, Seattle, US
The man behind the project of the same name, Steve Spacek grew up in the churches and raves of South London. In this talk at the 2005 RBMA in Seattle, he details the many different influences that went into the pioneering sound of his band, talking at length about the creative process. To him, the music and the vibe are more important than the song, with the voice being little more than another instrument. We also hear about the importance of having the right bass and the right face, digging for beats and why the endorsement of other big name stars can be crucial to an underground artist.
