Yet another pseudonym for the work of
Taylor Deupree (aka Taylor 808) and
Savvas Ysatis (aka
Omicron) -- that is, besides
S.E.T.I.. and Arc --
Futique make the alias rather necessary, since the duo's material is surprisingly different from their usual glut of sparse ambience. Hip-hop beatboxes and Crooklyn dub make appearances alongside the jazzy rhythms on
Futique's debut,
Luv Luv (recorded, as always, for the Instinct label). Mr. So & So followed in 1996, and
Go Low appeared three years later. ~ John Bush
