Hey Joe,
Remember that bath gig, it was a good night.

The Salt Tank is alive and well as we float and muse in the boyant salt waters of the isolation tank.

The music does continue. We haven't released anything new for while but there is work a foot.

For the keen eared Sargasso Sea has just be used for summer 2007 Wightlink's Isle of Wight Ferries advert for ITV. Also Bill Oddie knows a good tune too as we've popped up once or twice on the BeeB with his bird programmes lately.

As for Duran Duran, that came about via our manager and was great fun.
We appraoched it differently though.
Being such a classic pop tune, making a prog trance version seemd totally crass. Therefore we decided to take only the original parts from tape plus just a touch of some contempary sounds circa 1998.
Rebuilt the bassline and groove laboriously from tape, the result sounding much like the original but faster in a "music sounds better with you" feel. Therefore quite mixable.
Went down very well, you'd never guessed it was us at the helm. More of an engineering/producing result rather than a compositional one.

Great pages, nice work.
Keep on rocking
