As you say, ntone = Ninja Tune = Coldcut / Hex who are still going
strong predominantly as Ninja Tune.
Drome = Bernd ("Burnt") Friedmann = Nonplace Urban Fields ::: the
Drome I've got is on Kiff, he's also been associated with Freibank
and seems to pop up on lots of projects; Journeyman = Paul Frankland
= Woob. Journeyman's National Hijinx came out on ntone last year and
as Woob he's with em:t. A new release by Neotropic is apparently
on the cards (via Ninja Tune) and yes, I agree : more from Real Life
would be brlliant. Is 94's "Journey of the Carcharadon" (Wild
Mutant Deity) the only thing they've done?
Maybe the Nin-jahs (hi Jeff!) can shed some more light?
