Matt Cogger did several albums, I believe. I have one of them, which is mostly excellent: http://www.discogs.com/release/73987 and I've heard others which are also very cool.
This story is very very vague, but I'll recount what I can remember of it: an acquaintance of a friend of mine happened to be talking to a guy working behind a bar somewhere in London some years ago (is that vague enough for you?!?). Anyway....from what I remember they somehow got onto the subject of electronic music and the barman mentions he used to make it......turns out it's Matt Cogger. He tells this fella he's not doing it anymore and he had to sell his studio, possibly for financial reasons, I forget. The fella hearing this story was running a label and wanted to get Cogger to use shared gear to make some new music, as he was into his previous work. I have no idea how true that is or if true, whether anything came of it....but it's certainly true that I was told the story. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 06 Feb 2003 12:22:28 +0000 To: "Jongsma, K.J." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> From: Jason Brunton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> CC: 313 <313@hyperreal.org> Subject: Re: (313) Matt Cogger Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi KJ, His track "banangate" which appeared on the Virtual Sex album also came out as 12 on Buzz- worth hearing. There was also an extremely good track of his remixed by Derrick May on a really rare ART CD comp which came out around 92- only heard it twice- totally incredible as I remember Cheers Jason > >> I've got this, it was a Metroplex sampler and was then >> licensed to Peacefrog i think, but was never fully released >> on either, though correct me if thats wrong.
