Sounds Like MySpace Tracker hello there, just wanted everyone to know that i did compile the I HATE MUSIC output compilation, but have NOTHING to do with the new remixes thats are being released, i'm not happy with them, they didn't need to be done, and don't have my support. OUTPUT IS DEAD, & don't let anyone tell you otherwise. the back catalogue will happily always be available, but there will be no new releases on the label ever!, the process label and its artists have nothing to do with me, i'm currently spending my time doing things more worthwhile.

   About PLAYGROUP
Trevor Jackson is a London based creative, working in many fields including graphic design, art direction, moving image, composing, remixing and production, installations and performance. His career began in the early 90's forming the design company BITE IT! creating record covers for early dance and hip hop releases for the likes of STEREO MC'S, JUNGLE BROTHERS and TODD TERRY. He was selected for 1990's CREATIVE FUTURES exhibition, and also featured in Cynthia Rose's influential book DESIGN AFTER DARK - THE STORY OF DANCEFLOOR STYLE (Thames and Hudson). After setting up his independant hip hop label BITE IT! RECORDINGS in 1991, he ventured into record production and remixing. Using the UNDERDOG name, he became successful mixing artists such as MASSIVE ATTACK, U2 and UNKLE, and also producing multicultural british rap act the BROTHERHOOD, whose highly commended debut album ELEMENTALZ was released by VIRGIN RECORDS in 1995 In 1996 Trevor formed a new label OUTPUT RECORDINGS, introducing international artists such as FOUR TET, BLACK STROBE, COLDER MU, CIRCLESQUARE, THE RAPTURE, LCD SOUNDSYSTEM as well as his own acclaimed PLAYGROUP project. OUTPUT was recognized as one of the UK's most fiercely independent and creatively groundbreaking labels, releasing uncompromising yet accessible new music of many genres. A cover story in Jockey Slut magazine (2003) cited OUTPUT as this decades equivalent to the legendary Factory or Warp records.  In 2006 after 10 successful years and 100 unique releases  Trevor decided to close the label  A compilation of a decade of Outputs releases 'I HATE MUSIC' was released in 2007 Jackson is in demand as an international DJ and can been heard playing at many exclusive international art and fashion events,  as well as credible underground clubs around the world. his DJ abilities were showcased on the 2002 released DJ KICKS album (K7!)  and recent remixes for the likes of THE GOSSIP, FRANZ FERDINAND, LADYTRON, SOFT CELL and TOM VEK  can be listened to on his 2004, Playgroup REPRODUCTIONS remix CD (PEACEFROG).  A selection of influences and obscure classics are feautured on I LIKE IT volume 2 (compost records) as well as the 2007 released KINGS OF ELECTRO (BBE) Compilation alongside ALTER EGO. There is a new PLAYGROUP album planned in 2008  along with many new musical releases under various guises Trevor is currently working on diverse design projects for many clients. His campaign for the belgium band SOULWAX won  various awards including the 2005 TOKYO TDC non members prize, a D&AD sliver pencil nomination, and CREATIVE REVIEW's  best in book. Features and selections of his work have appeared in publications such as INDEX, IDN, SPECIAL 10, TOKION,  GRAFIK as well as being included in the GUGGENHEIM Museum's exhibition on minimalism, "Singular Forms (Sometimes Repeated)  Art from 1951 to the Present", Trevor combined his audio and visual talents  with an installation for the launch of the BMW1 series car, and a debut live a/v performance for the ONEDOTZERO festival  in Tokyo 2005, in 2007 he showed work at the BALTIC in newcastle as part of the DAZED VS WARHOL exhibition and created a realtime live  a/v performance titled RGBPM which premiered at the london IMAX (as part of the OPTRONICA festival), this show is being currently being developed to be toured in the near future.
