Who was this?

Just Mark? Just Tom? Collaborative? Someone else entirely?

and "Remixes by Reload...." re: cyberdon ep

were there unmixed "original" versions of these two tracks that were never released?

Just a little clarification on one of the 17 or so aliases floating out there.

Thanks for any info anyone can drop on this.

And for "Reload" I know Tom was pretty heavily involved with the ...Short Stories album, but otherwise, isn't Reload an alias for just Mark, "officially"?

If E621 wasn't mentioned, Tom wasn't involved right?

Like on Reload Remixes, or the "Archives" or "AutoReload" EP.

Was that just Mark?

I am doing my best to sort it all out, (and get discogs corrected with official information) so any help in this matter would be great.

Thanks folks!

Hi there,
Mystic institute was a guy called Paul Kent He was from Cornwall.
He basically hired my studio to do a ep, First up we did the 2 tracks -
A1 QA-752L-P
A2 NS-581-T
As i basically did the tracks we called them reload remixes. There was no other versions. The track neames were made out of a combo of Paul and my postcodes. Paul came up with the name Obselon Minos, its something from star trek and he was a big fan.
Paul and i started Obselon Minos, Then Tom Came up the next day to the studio and added a melody.
Some time after that i said to Tom that the melody was so strong we should take that and base a whole new track around it. So we made a new version which was what was released on the b side.
The original Obselon Minos was never released.
I think all of the reload remixes that were done were Me and Tom. The archives reload tracks were just me. E621 was Toms name. The auto reload ep 2 had a track Phase 4 that was just me.
Tom and i co wrote 3 tracks on the album and tom was there for the mixdowns to lend an ear on most of the album.
Reload was my name to start then we added the e621 for tom. Then with the album as Tom was involved so we did remixes together after that as Reload. I didnt do any Reload remixes on my own.
Hope this clears it up.
