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?

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

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.
