the name has something to do w/ films etc..: This enigmatic electronica duo Mike Sandison (b. 14 July 1971, Scotland) and Marcus Eoin (b. 27 May 1973, Scotland) reportedly derive their collaborative moniker from the, National Film Board of Canada whose nature/socio-political documentaries they (supposedly) watched as infants, when both sets of parents relocated to Alberta, Canada to work. These grainy films influence the mood and ambience of their early singles 'Hi-Scores' and 'Aquarius' (on the Skam label), and their albums Twoism (of which only 100 copies were pressed) and Music Has The Right To Children. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
