I have started Versatile records in 1996.First release was I:Cube,Disco cubism.A released that propeled us in the front of the scene.Suddenly we were playing all around the world with our heroes.And that was not really planned.In 1997,i also became a father,and that was the main reason that pushed me to get a dv camera.But quickly,not only i was filming my paternity,but took my camera everywhere on the road.And here is some of it.It’s not at all about nostalgia.It’s more about a sketchbook of the begenning of the label:a time of innocence, naivity and great fun!
I’ve been laying over 120 dv tapes for over 20 years,so i tought it was about time to digitalize them and eventually use them to give a testimony of how it was back then.
I filmed from 1997 till 2003,then i dropped the camera..The early Versatile days.
Special thanks to all the people in the movie..
