1990's

Influenced by statuesque electronic artists the likes of Jean-Michel Jarre, Tomita and Vangelis, ambient composer Daniel Pemberton began collecting keyboard gear from an early age and wrote a tips column for a video-game magazine to earn enough money for increasingly high-end equipment. He also began recording his own compositions, and passed a tape on to Mixmaster Morris at one of his gigs. When word (as well as additional tapes) continued to spread, Pemberton recorded his debut album Bedroom, which gained release in late 1994 for Pete Namlook's highly collectible Fax Records. The Mixmaster Morris connection also led to work for Coldcut's Ninja Tune label, including a DJ Vadim remix released on the latter's U.S.S.R. Reconstruction LP.
