If my memory serves me correctly (which it often does not),
I believe that the 5 Further Journys project was by one of the
members of The Grid, David Ball I think. It was released as 
one 12" with 4 journeys or on cd with all 5 journeys. From 
what i remember i thought it was very Chill Out/Space-era 
KLF sounding. I liked it quite a bit back when i was heavily 
into the ambient electronica thing.

Not that i know of but if you want a similar sounding record
try the KLF: Chill Out or Space releases.

The Syzygy you are talking about is by Dominic Glynn and 
Justin Mackay. There were a few eps out before that lp on
Rising High. Those releases were:

. Syzygy: Discovery 12" (Rising High)
. Syzygy: Terminus 12" (Infonet)

There were a few unreleased tracks on the several of the
Secret Life of Trance and Chill Out or Die compilations
as well.

I don't know if they've done anything since that Rising High
album though.

BTW: Don't confuse the Syzygy artist with the outstanding
Syzygy label out of Japan. They have nothing to do with each
other.
