Press to Continue were a Ska punk band from North Hertfordshire, originally comprising of four members Tim with his voice, Joe on bass, Ryan hitting drums and Tom playing guitar. They were later joined by Amie on vocals and Luke on sax with a brief stint from drummer Jordan.

Their last gig was in 2009 and some of their music is still available here https://www.soundclick.com/bands3/default.cfm?bandID=857541

Back in 2007 I did some live recordings for DWA, We all crammed into a rehearsal space and I used a 10″ Apple Macbook and a Presonus Firepod straight into garage band.

I can’t remember exactly why we recorded it now but I’m glad it was done, I think Tom used an edited version that he took from the audio which went on the second DWA Album.

I still have all the original source files but below are the live mix versions unedited besides a little EQ.
