’20 Years of Beats & Pieces’ was actually started back in July 2009 and completed just under a year later with a solid six months spent on it and little else. Featuring over 1,200 images from personal collections of various artists as well as my own archive, I photographed, scanned and cleaned up hundreds upon hundreds of picture for this on my own.

I sorted through boxes of Ninja Tune‘s press archives, found photographers to gain access to high quality images and even helped proof-read Stevie Chick’s copy as it came in. 192 pages, priced £19.95, if you see one, have a flick through and find out what the label got up to during their first two decades.
