Sarah Ginn takes a visual journey through UK dance culture in new book

Super Sharp Shooter offers a look at 30 years of UK club music.

Velocity Press has announced plans for Super Sharp Shooter, a book by Sarah Ginn which features over 800 photos from UK rave and dance culture in the ’00s, ’10s and ’20s.

Releasing on May 5, Super Sharp Shooter showcases photography from the worlds of drum & bass, dubstep, house and techno. Ginn will take readers backstage at festivals and venues like fabric, Ultra Festival, Boomtown, Glastonbury, Outlook, Printworks, Creamfields and Hospitality.

“I’m looking forward to publishing this book because these actually are my only memories! Research shows that when you take photos, it actually affects the way you remember things,” Ginn says. “So on that note, I hope you all enjoy my crazy spectral journey into sound, the many sights of the rave and everything in between.”

Artists including Andy C, Skream, Shy FX, Carl Cox, Goldie, Jon Hopkins and Miss Kitten feature in the book alongside Ginn’s essay The Feedback Loop Theory. Check out some photos from Super Sharp Shooter below.
