I Love giving purpose to something that's already had one!
Rave music was built on sampling. Taking elements of what's come before, drawing on heritage and history, and creating something brand new in the process.
4 From the Floor takes that idea and adds a whole new dimension.
Acid house, jungle and drum 'n' bass pioneer Micky Finn has teamed up with artist Tom Finn and woodworker Barry Long to create an art project that both represents and belongs to rave history.
Using oak parquet flooring salvaged from a refurb of Micky's house – a hallowed hall of rave history in its own right, frequented by the music's elite over decades – the three artists combined their ingenuity to elevate this recycled material into the perfect ornamentation for a music lover.
Lovingly treated, worked and shaped into the waveforms of samples from some of Micky Finn's classic tracks – including the perennial DnB favourite 'Bad Ass' – Micky, Tom and Barry have come up with a collection that can't be replicated.
The materials, the designs, and the artists themselves are all inextricably woven into the history of rave music.
With that lineage, these pieces should be displayed prominently and lovingly in the homes and studios of aficionados for decades to come.
This isn't art about rave history. Right down to the actual wood it's made from, this art IS rave history, crafted for the appreciation of true connoisseurs.
Happy 2024 to all.
Dads Suit Meets Tools Of The Trade
Remicks time.
Wearing Your Heart On Your Sleeve 1/1 unique one offs.
My Dad's suit & Tools Of The Trade.
A light bulb moment was had after going on https://www.facebook.com/sarsaparillakid podcast, otherwise known as Dj Ron, that I had an old suit of my dad's and some hoodies and sweats from my merchandise line. Then the mind goes to work and here we are.
Let me do something special for my sisters Kate Hearn Jacobs and https://www.facebook.com/charlie.cheng.1276 and Ronnie my brother.
I am beyond happy with how they came out, far better than I pictured them looking and even happier that they loved them.
Elbow patch for my dads hard work.
A piece on our shoulders so he is always on them.
Patches on the back so we carry him always.
The button in the love heart means (Button It) which he told us to do regular, means shut up.
So many great memories of dad in this suit and now its not hidden away but given a new purpose so if you have that special something hidden away, heres an idea for you.
Your welcome.
🧵 So glad I found Lana the amazing seamstress who hand stitched all the work.
Enjoy and Lana's details below if you have that special loved one you never want to forget like me.

The whole idea started with me looking at a mic in the studio and literally having a light bulb moment, FINNSTRUMENTAL was born.
Have I had the confidence to show you?
No Is answer but here goes with a little teaser of my first piece.
Got to say Thank you to ollieneame for amazing images and video work.

Words from Press release:
With his Finnstrumental project, Micky Finn is finally after many years of working on ideas behind the scenes – releasing his highly-individual music-related creations to the public.
And you haven't seen anything quite like this before.
There's are drumkits that have become tables, a microphone that's now a lamp operated with a guitar pedal, a snare light fitting and watch out for the guitable.
Sure, we've heard of Micky Finn sampling instruments before, but this time he's doing it with the physical objects rather than with their sound.
So, you see, this isn't a career-change for Micky. This is a continuation of what he's always done, flying the flag for the best in underground UK music, representing the history as well as adding his own twist of creativity. And, as has always been the case in Micky's output, it's about putting a smile your face. Sure, the levels of artistry and craftsmanship are serious business, but the finished results are all about celebrating the joy of music and its iconography.
Film clip T.B.C.
When a track grabs you so much you have to take a trip to Belguim tripping, A voice said go search where it was made, so we ended up in Belguim.
Correction on the track title, it was Flesh By Split second
There is no traffic jams when you go the extra mile.

4 From The Floor. She's Breaking Up samples into Art
Acid house, jungle and drum 'n' bass pioneer Micky Finn has teamed up with artist Tom Finn and woodworker Barry Long – also well-established electronic music producers – to create an art project that both represents and belongs to rave history.
Tom's is already well-known for fusing rave culture with the mixed media artwork and iconic smiley face tables sold under his Acid Lounge brand, and Barry's Live Edge Interiors business is an established name in high-quality craftsmanship.
Using oak parquet flooring salvaged from a refurb of Micky's house – a hallowed hall of rave history in its own right, frequented by the music's elite over decades – the three artists combined their ingenuity to elevate this recycled material into the perfect ornamentation for a music-loving home.
Lovingly treated, worked and shaped into the waveforms of samples from some of Micky Finn's classic tracks – including his 1991 debut 'She's Breaking Up' and the perennial DnB favourite 'Bad Ass' – Micky, Tom and Barry have come up with a collection that can't be replicated. The materials, the designs, and the artists themselves are all inextricably woven into the history of rave music.
