Seems the Juno Reactor and CJ Bolland questions have been answered, so to the Vapourspace... Vapourspace was/is Mark Gage who also has recorded under other names, one of which is Cusp another of which, I believe, may have been Microset Morning (?). A contentious quote of times past from the NME ran "Mark Gage is the American equivalent of the Aphex Twin" (NOT my words). "Themes from Vapourspace" was a well reviewed album that spawned a dance floor hit with 'Gravitational Arch of 10'. Cusp was a slightly more dance floor obtuse project which released some fine 12 inches on Probe. I do recall seeing some more recent Mark Gage releases than these (possibly the video you saw?) but being completely honest, though I still enjoy the stuff of his I've bought in the past, I kinda lost interest in tracking his current stuff down... Maybe someone could let me know if I missed anything that I shouldn't have? Rubyjune.
