ok well the aloof have been around since about 91 or so they are dj
dean thatcher um a couple of others who used to be a ssociated with dj
andrew weatherall's various projects (cant remember names sorry) they
used to be on cowboy (uk) records, their 1st (?) single 'on a mission' 91
/ 92 (?) is actually pretty cool, sorta scatty vocals, funky percussion,
still sounds good. then they went all prog house, now they are trip hoppy,
i hear. not great.
