DAT#01 was originally released on 1 August 2009 by The Tapeworm as TTW#01 in a cassette-only edition of 250 copies. A subsequent edition of 100 copies, to celebrate our first label night at Cafe OTO, was released on 19 September 2009.

Here is the original press release:

We are really chuffed to have Philip Jeck as our first release! Recorded in June 2009, at home in Liverpool. On "Spool", Jeck eschews his usual prepared vinyl technique, instead playing bass guitar through various effects boxes.

"Philip Jeck works with old records and record players salvaged from junk shops turning them to his own purposes. He really does play them as musical instruments, creating an intensely personal language that evolves with each added part of a record. Philip Jeck makes geniunely moving and transfixing music, where we hear the art not the gimmick."

Philip passed away in March 2022 after a short illness.
