Obsession had a tiny club night in rural Herefordshire listed at the bottom of the above tape sleeve, misty back lanes in a village called Wormelow, took an age to find driving south of Brum. Proper springy dance floor but way too manic full of e gannets

I think there are real parallels between the hobbyist technical artistry of these 90s visual art attempts and the technical artistry of the new rave music. Both camps were exploring new computer tools that were available on floppy disks on magazine covers. Bedroom nerd gangs feeding off each other's energy . The computer tooling was so lofi as to totally admit the hobbyist bedroom environment that the art was forged in. There was no hope of being any higher fidelity, of ever looking corporate, it looked and sounded like what it was, suburban bedroom tech trying to reach above its station. Both the music and the visuals.
