2000 release. "Matt Yee-King (25), another new artist on Rephlex, but by no means a stranger to music making. At 16 he started playing drums and was in a school band with Tom 'Squarepusher' Jenkinson and Jordan 'Railway Raver' Muscott. He went to university in Leeds and learnt how to drink cheap cider and genetically modify viruses. After graduating with his BSc in Zoology and Genetics he moved to Brighton and wrote loads of tracks and was in a band with Jamie Lidelle (Supercollider) and did a couple of improv gigs with Tom Jenkinson. Then he went back to university again to learn what artificial life is and how to genetically modify music. He is java programmer by trade, and also designed the web site for Action on Smoking and Health. www.ash.org.uk/. He likes strong cheese and fish, claims to be musically influenced by Aphex, Squarepusher and any 'funny rock bands? like Whitesnake and James Joyce' and he doesn't like people who won't argue. Basically he's a brainbox-computer-wizzkid. Most people own a copy of Warp's Artificial Intelligence, Matt Yee-King went one step further and got an MSC in it."
