Geche - Sound Designer, Phonometrician, Electronic Musician
During a boozy night whilst a student, James posted a CD of some of his dissertation material to Warp Records for a laugh, passed out and forgot the whole thing. A month later, email arrived from Steve Beckett of Warp expressing his interest in the CD.
So if anyone's to blame for the years of abject misery & hairloss, it him.
From Paradise studios in Cambridge to the Strongroom in London, with international airplay and singles shoe-horned into compilations alongside FSOL, Nightmares on Wax, Rjd2 and Coldcut, Geche has built up a respectable resumé of collaborations, releases and remixes. |

| James is currently producing the sound and music for computer game releases on XBOX 360 and home PC whilst concocting the next incarnation of his Geche pseudonym. |

Tendon - Singer, Songwriter / Composer, Musician
Formed in 2001, Tendon have been playing songs ever since.
It is the most fun thing they know. One of their favourite mottos from their extensive ‘motto lists' is “Enjoy good food, good weather and good sex”. Yet none of their songs revolve around any of these themes. In fact, every one of their songs is about love and beauty.
As Leo Imai likes to emphasise on those cold and grainy London days, where there can be nothing done but to sit indoors and ponder on the futility of existence, where the enormity of the universe silently overwhelms, and where nothing satisfies the senses more than a chilled glass of Bison Vodka and apple juice: “Hey, all our songs are about love and beauty”.
On such days, Amir Hon will often reply to Leo Imai in a subdued tone: “Yeah. And even though our songs suck, they are still about love and beauty, and so we should spread them all over the world. Let's make it happen!” And Leo Imai will more often than not respond in a manner not normally associated with young men of his age: “Hell yeah. But even though our songs are on a superficial level rather philosophical, deep down, in our heart of hearts, it's all about the ladies”.
And so the days go by.
