Stylus
Stylus is the pseudonym of the reclusive experimentalist Dafydd Morgan. In April 1997 he released the track "Kinski" (a tribute to Klaus Kinski) on a 10" split record with the band Longstone. "A lengthy, multi-layered piece of electronica, taking in vintage Cluster and 90's digi-dub" (The Wire). In 1998 he was part of the Serpents, a collaboration of artists on Ochre Records and Cardiff based Ankst Records (including David Wrench, Skyray, Will Sergeant of Echo and the Bunnymen, Ectogram, Longstone, Rheinhallt H. Rowlands, the Anglesey Ambient Experiment, Zoe Skoulding and Môr) which released their debut 7" single No mask, no cloak, Dim Gobaith in May 1998. On 24 June 1998 his track "Paradise Ranch" was broadcast on The John Peel show. About "Glass dream 1" the Record Collector wrote: "Stylus put Baudelaire to a throbbing psychedelic backdrop"...
