Artificial Intelligence II

This was one of the first albums I bought as a teenager,
and I've loved it ever since. But whatever happened to the
artists on this Warp compilation album?

Mark Franklin
The Higher Intelligence Agency
Link
B12
Autechre
Speedy J
Beaumont Hannant
Richard H. Kirk
Balil
Seefeel

Link went on to release The Theory of Evolution, and some
brilliant stuff as Global Communication. Everyone knows
about Autechre. Seefeel split up a year or so afterwards.
Balil (Black Dog) became Plaid when Black Dog split up. What
about the rest?

Check out speedy's stuff on mute records. Fucking brilliant.

Yeah, I heard some of the stuff he did on Plastikman's Plus
8 label, and some of it was okay. Not as good as the track
Symmetry that he released for AI II.

Ahh crap... I can't believe I didn't realise link = global
communication. I love GC and I always wondered what happend
to Link.

Sorry I can't help with the dissaperance of the other
artists but I thank you for bringing me into the light.

Speedy's Shocking Hobby album on mute (I think it's from
2000) is a hell of a ride. A kind of a warp style record fed
through some serious bad attitude distorsion

richard h kirk still recorsd under a diff guise of
electronic eye.

mark clifford (seefeel) went on to form disjencta i
think-following in the low fi dub vein-ive got some of his
stuff on a n old invisible soundtrack compilation on leaf
records.

oh and darrel fitton (HIA) continues as bola and contributes
to the GESCOM output everynow and again..hes quite involved
with skam in manchester.

Yep, Trevor, Link is just one of their many pseudonyms. Do
you know about the Jedi Knights, Reload and Chameleon as
well?

Ken, was Darrell Fitton in the Higher Intelligence Agency? I
always thought his track was the weakest on the album.
Didn't some member of the Asian Dub Foundation also used to
be in HIA?

Yeah... as soon as you wrote that Link=GC I decided to look
up their side projects. Thanks.

yeah from what i remember-it was track two wasnt it? yeah it
was shite. i used to have the two cd compilation of that
then sold it like a goon-it used to have a scary scanner
track right at the very end of disc two, where this bloke
was making a deal with a prostitute-eery...

Trevor, have you got 76:14 by Global Communication? I think
it must be my favourite album, or at least one of them. If
you don't have it, do anything to pick it up.

Ohhh do I ever have it. I play the shit out of it. It's
just so dubby and sedate.

76.14 is fucking awesome isnt it? the last track is
fantastic, with all the choirs on it-have you heard
'remotion'? its a compilation of all the remixes global
comms have done-thats kush as well, though not as goog.
maidon voyage-what a tune...;>

Do you know what these guys are doing now? I haven't heard
from them since about 1996, when they were very interested
in the kind of P-Funk electro you get on tracks like Pubic
Funk. I don't know if they've broken up, taken a long rest,
or turned to composing film scores or something...

hahaha... Spelling is no problem. I spell 'just' as 'jsut'
about 75% of the time + a myriad of other assorted spelling
errors.

I have heard a bit of the GC remixes but not alot.

Yeah, Ken, I love the last track. It's the kind of music you
should listen to as you slowly wake up at two in the
afternoon. The second track, 14:31, is very good, and very
well known. I love the third track, and the long 7th track,
which is nominally split into two parts. I love this music
more than sex.

haha!

didnt globs put out 'the groove'-which i didnt rate to be
honest, they also put out 'big knockers' as jedi knights and
then they just kinda vanished!! i think the other guy who
isnt tom put out a jedi knights funk mic as well as a kinda
'dj kicks' type thing. but that must have been about a
couple of years now...

Tome Middleton from GC was the OTHER Aphex Twin...on the
first release...

Co-wrote - Entrace to Exit..I believe...

but they split due some disagreement or other...

It's a small world...

Did he not co-write Analogue Bubblebath as well?

And weren't Global Comm's responsible for that Rhubarb and
Custard rave tune from a few years ago?

Indeed they were...

But I doubt they like people to know...I can just see em
playing that in the middle of a set....NOT...

You don't know what their up to now, do you? I really like
them, and it seems such a waste for them not to release
anything else.
