all four members are back together, and 'participating' in the 242 project. (as
it no longer seems to be the 'mainstay' of each individual involved...) i
believe that patrick codenys is now the main force behind their newer material.
(so i'm told...) i do know that the group has always been interested in
'techno' since the rave scene evolved.. as for their tour of the states, it
will basically be comprised of 'older' material, with some of their newer
efforts scattered about. (purpose being to see the crowds reaction to this
'new' sound...) once again, i am told that they are compiling new material for
release. as for what members will be involved in the studio, and their
contribution, has yet to be seen. (i'm guessing codenys and daniel b. will be
playing a very LARGE part in the 'new' 242..) but this is all word of mouth
(although more reliable than average...), and obviously subject to change. (and
the truth...)

got me.. the page says as cobalt 60, but when i talked to them after the C-Tec
concert, it really wasn't under any 'name.' and if you go to the C-Tec page,
it says that the soundtrack for Wing Commander V was provided by members of
C-Tec. oh well, nothing to lose any sleep over..
