Mark Rutherford & Dave Congreve are now working on solo projects. Mark is now going under the name of 'Object Object' and has recently worked on a remix for Unkle.

Dave Congreve is venturing into the studio once more to produce and remix under his own name, as well as collaborating with The Boardroom (Klang Elektronik).
He is finalizing remixes for Two Lone Swordsman and Left Room Records, and also a series of his own EPs have been planned for release later in the year.

This is a step onwards from the highly acclaimed Repeat/Repeat project, which gave us the much praised "Squints" album on Soma.
