You mean Jamie Hodge - the last thing I have with his involvement is the astonishinly good second Conjoint LP, 'Earprints' on Source (Germany) - a freestyle electronic jazz masterpiece with David Moufang, Karl Berger and others... Highly highly recommended, along with the first Conjoint album which I'm still desparately seeking on vinyl...

There was this track of his on one of the old Trance Atlantic compliations that continues to kick my ass to this day. I don't think I've ever really heard much from him since then, tho.

it was his only hit. Massive attack also did a cover of it on
blue lines.
p.s. any Dubliners around... I'll be doing the kitchen with
Kenny Larkin this Friday.

Love (Arthur Lee's outfit) also did a very nice cover the hard-to-find
Reel to Real lp. It might be my favorite version.

(313) RE: (tech-house) Re: new tektite
i thought merricks own review and release details sum it up well, sounds great, read on: New Release Info: Various Artists - Second Array Tektite Recordings Cat no: TITE-05 Release Date: September 17, 1999 a1: Fred Giannelli - Celine Solution [W/P by Fred Giannelli] a2: Moron - (neo)moronics part III [W/P by Sutekh and Safety Scissors] b1: Silverlining - Don't forget your ambdo-cnyper [W/P by Asad Rizvi] b2: Neo - Jerusalem [W/P by Jon Knorr] Tektite Recordings returns for the second installment of the Array series. This release highlights 4 new additions to the Tektite Roster. The first, Fred Giannelli, has been creating exceptional music since his days in Psychic TV. He has gained much praise as the Kooky Scientist on Plus 8 and has a string of great releases on his own Telepathic Recordings. Fred's contribution to Second Array is a speaker thumping techno workout with playful synth patterns and bouncy rhythms. Moron (aka Sutekh and Safety Scissors) comes to us from San Francisco courtesy of Belief-Systems/Context for a deep pumping techhouse cut reminiscent of Sterac or Maas. The flip contains two more exceptional producers. The first, Silverlining (aka Asad Rizvi), is known for his releases on Reverberations and Wrong among others. He has been a driving force in the UK techhouse scene for many years and we are proud to have him on the Tektite roster. His track is deep bubbly techhouse, with a groovy bassline and excellent production. Rounding out the comp is Neo (aka The Knorrs). This Earth Recordings head honcho offers a crunchy percussive dj tool with plenty of drops and fills for the techno trickster. This record is mastered by The Knorrs and cut at The EXCHANGE. To order, please contact: Watts Music fax: (516)596-9508 or Merrick Brown @ Tektite through one of the following channels: tel: 512.416. fax: 512.442.4618 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] sire www.elektroshock.com

Moron Back in my industrial days, I used to grove on Fred Giannelli's Fred cd on waxtrax! I still pop it out every once in a while. They believe, in nothing higher, than the gods, that break the dawn. We leave, this place to wired, seeking to break out now --- well something like that. So Fred, (I know your on this list), good work!
