(story) Space Clocks was originally recorded on a four track 1/4 inch Docorder multitrack tape recorder and a 1960's Orange PA mix board in 1982 by Dean on one of the first recordings he ever made whilst learning about multitracking and recording techniques. The basic track is made up of multitracked guitar harmonics, Roland Juno keyboard for bass, chords and space sounds. Having rediscovered the original mix on a dusty reel of tape almost 30 years later the track was digitally transferred and sampled for safe keeping. Shortly after the recording of Jeff's self titled album Dean and Jeff began a series of recording sessions at Jeff's home studio at Riverhall. There were around ten tracks recorded with view to develop them during months ahead. One of the guitar tracks recorded was on Space Clocks which was the last recording made during that time at Riverhall. Dean would then take all the recordings back to his studio in London to further produce and develop. Having edited and arranged the various passes of Jeff's guitar on Space Clocks the result is how you hear it on the track. Dean says it relates to what he found so special about Jeff's unique playing style and sound around the inspired Blow By Blow era of Jeff's work. Dark, mesmeric, thoughtful and very soulful. Unfortunately the recording sessions came to a halt and the spark of the collaboration just fizzled out. Maybe one day the tracks will see the light of day but at the moment they remain on an external hard disc in the exact same form and development stage as they were when they were originally recorded.
Space Clocks has been singled out by Dean as it has that special 'moment in time' quality and a personal musical achievement and attachment to him. He feels that others who like both the moods of Dean's music coupled with a very distinct sounding Jeff Beck guitar will understand and enjoy the track enormously.
