A TRIBUTE TO OUR FRIEND AND BROTHER, JONNY CERN

 

In 2008, New Zealand, and global drum and bass tragically lost one of its brightest stars, Jonathan Beck, who’s production as one half of CERN had inspired and moved people the world over. This is our tribute to Jonathan Ricky James Beck...

 

Cyanide Recordings, with the help and dedication of Phace, Misanthrop, Bulletproof, Teknik, and most importantly, Jonnys closest friend and production partner, Ollie Cern, proudly, but sadly pay tribute to a true friend, a true brother, and a truly talented soul.

 

Vulcanic would have been a dream come true for Jonny. Started in NZ in December 2007 by Phace Misanthrop Bulletproof and both Jonny and Ollie Cern, and completed by Florian Phace after hearing news of Jonny’s tragic passing in July 2008, the creation Vulcanic and chance to work with two of his greatest influences was one of the highlights of Jonnys Career.

 

After Jonny’s passing, three of his closest friends came together in remembrance to honour, to mourn and to heal. Scatter the Ashes is Bulletproof, Teknik and Ollie Cerns expression of sadness and loss during a time when things were still so raw and painful.

 

Both tracks are a true testament to not only the influence and inspiration and happiness an encounter with Jonny Cern would leave you feeling, but also, we hope, a true testament to the love and admiration we had for our dear brother and friend.

 

We hope you play these tracks the world over, so you help the spirit of our friend Jonathan Beck be remembered, and live on through music, through movement and through unity.
