About Me

Now playing: operandus modi

Formed up after a couple of bands we were in split up in Hastings, UK way back in 1976-1980. Started recording in 1980 but focused on other projects (like work!) until 1999. The internet did help out a bit there, as we started to colloborate again on composing and recording by swapping files across the Atlantic via email!
New CD "MellowD" came out Jan 2004.
There are a couple of hundred other tracks where these came from but there's no time to make any of them (or these) polished enough for human consumption!! And for that, we apologise most profusely... :)
BTW - if you think we got the name wrong - think again... we suffered too many years of Latin at school... :))
