The leaders of the oddly named duo, Kansas City-based percussionist D. Hitchcock and New York guitarist Sal Cataldi, first outlined their recombinant genre research on the 1998 cult smash "Escape Velocity" (Bad Egg 001), a jazz-inflected/noise &amp; dub fueled flight for the chill out room featuring star turns by the likes of Eno/Brand X bassman Percy Jones.This uncategorizable indie garnered raves from all edges of the cognoscenti universe including The Village Voice (“truly excellent… where Miles meets Midi”), JazzTimes (“an interesting potpourri of styles and spacious ambience”), Alternative Press , Aquarian Weekly (techie gorks, a free-funk direction reminiscent of Last Exit or Sonny Sharrock’s soundtrack to ‘Space Ghost’), CMJ,Fantastic Voyage System (“marvelous head candy, an all-out trip fest”) andFact Sheet Five (“part jazz, dub, funk, industrial and experimental, way more exciting than 99% of the music being released these days”) 2012 will see the release of their long overdue follow up, the darkly sonic "Gealago."

Thom had his first public performance; a short work for solo piano called Landscapes, at the International Shrewsbury school of Music summer school, under the guidance of composer Kevin Malone. Since then he has continued his studies at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (formerly RSAMD) under Dr Oliver Searle, and now in his third year with Stuart MacRae. Thom has had a number of performances at the Conservatoire's PLUG festival  and in addition Thom has had his work regularly performed by Said Ensemble, which Thom co-founded with fellow composers Jason Staddon and Matthew Whiteside. They have been running relaxed late night new music nights in Glasgow since 2011.
