Hk! -----Original Message----- From: cognition@ns.sympatico.ca [mailto:cognition@ns.sympatico.ca] Sent: Wednesday, April 19, 2000 9:55 AM To: Kelley Hackett Cc: 'Michael Upton '; 'idm@hyperreal.org' Subject: Re:Aspen etc Aspen is Bevan Smith. He also records as Signer when he does tech house/techno material. You can hear Signer's Giving It Up To Feel Effected album (out soon on New Zealand's Involve in a co-release with Kog Transmissions) in full in RealAudio on Cognition: http://techno.ca/cognition plus two other forthcoming releases from Involve. Michael Upton is a talented, yet humble, producer who records as Jet Jaguar. He's got an album out on Involve. When Aspen and Jet Jaguar get together, the result is Patio. There's a Patio album out on Involve too. More info on involve can be found here: http://www.involve.co.nz hope this helps. andrew duke Kelley Hackett wrote:
