Actually (sorry, idmer's, I know this isn't idm :-)), they've been
doing stuff every coupla years from 1966-present (or at least 1993).
Their discog is at
http://www.shef.ac.uk/misc/rec/ps/efi/mamm.html
And it lists this:
1993, Vendouvre, Virgin Records ABMT4. One track on Ambient
isolationism, a double CD compilation.

It'd be interesting if a *new* book on Electronic/Experimental music
was written (with all the stuff that's come out in the past 10 years,
I think it'd make for some good reading (of course, sometimes I just
don't wanna know how the stuff is done, or what they were
thinking...just like I don't like videos telling me what images I
should see when I hear a song)).
