DJ, musician, journalist, and self-described "international cheerleader of ambient," Mixmaster Morris has been one of the most visible (and most active) proponents of new ambient and electronic music. He released his first full-length work, "Flying High" (1992), on the Rising High label, and recorded a celebrated collaboration with Frankfurt ambient composer Pete Namlook, "Dreamfish". Both albums landed Morris at the forefront of the new ambient movement - a position he graciously accepted - and a string of remix work for the likes of Coldcut, the Shamen, Barbarella, Rising High Collective, and Higher Intelligence Agency followed. Growing problems with his label, however, would plague Morris into the recording of his second album, which was delayed for two years. Following the release of Global Chillage in 1994, Morris dissolved his relationship with Rising High and began recording for old friends Coldcut on their Ninja Tune label…
G-Force is a 1980 album by the namesake UK-American band led by Gary Moore. Moore was on an American tour with Thin Lizzy and left the band mid-tour. He went to Los Angeles in an attempt to make a solo rock presence. With the opportunity to tour America in support of Van Halen, Moore recruited bassist Tony Newton, vocalist Willie Dee and percussionist Mark Nauseef and the band was formed as G-Force. The tour was a success, and the band supported Whitesnake on their 1980 Ready & Willing trek. However, the band was short lived, only producing the one eponymous album. The album consisted of more conventional hard rock radio oriented music than Moore's previous efforts. Soon after its release, G-Force disbanded and Moore joined with Greg Lake of Emerson, Lake & Palmer fame, on a new venture.
