As for the discog:

there are four versions of the Spatial Specific cd:
+8 cd/lp

Virgin Canada #2 w/ different mixes + 'Nocturnal Radio Mix' of 'Synaptic
Response'

all the cds should come with a plastic insert over the sleeve which
enhances the op art

w/ 'Synaptic Response (Short Attention Span Mix)' 3.52
 ' 'Synaptic Response (Nocturnal Radio Mix)' 5.16
'Synaptic Reversed' 4.22
 'Synaptic Response (Spatial Specific Mix)' 6.08

they also have tracks on the two Interchill compilations, and one on Kudos'
B Is For Broccoli.

also an  Incarnate flexi disc
Decay (Eternal Opuscule #100)  FPCON19   1996
A numbered, limited "flexi" disc with their 100th locked groove. As you
play this one-sided flexi it will damage and decay, as per the title. The
sleeve will also decay because it is made from photo-sensitive blueprint
paper! Ashes to ashes, carbon to dust...

also aka Zeuxis & The Painted Grapes
Mystic Songs From The Sanitorium
12PCON14
UK pressing of their trip-hopish alter ego. "Blissed (7 Inch Mix)"
dubby-back beat with melodic horn, organ, piano and roots reggae vocal
sample. Very strange coming from a couple of suburban white kidz... "Dubble
Dipped Mix" The Legion put on their King Tubby hats and dubbed their
strange Caribbean track. Also "Don't Make Me Love You" funky Legion beat
and harmonica that would mix with Little Axe & "Dub You". Also two locked
grooves ("Eternal Opuscule #84 lounge-y loop of echoey drum machine and
acoustic guitar & #85 Esplendor Geometrico goes funky).

also they are involved with:
Watershell
The Initial Scroll EP
Post Contemporary
cat? 1996
Limited numbered edition w/ story insert. The Legion/Incarnate and three
friends (one who is Watershell) put their great track "Calling Elan" on
vinyl (which was previously on the Serenity Dub 3.1 compilation). This
atmospheric Sabres-ish dub-groove features an off-time horn line. Also 2 of
their specialty locked grooves (Eternal Opuscule #98 slow groovin' back
beat & #99 steppers jungle at 45rpm) and 3 digi-dub/drum & bass-ish trax
from Watershell (some of the best out of Canada). "Latch 22" produced by
Incarnate; "Teller's Tale"; "Teller's Dub" Dead Dread-style remix by
Incarnate.


 Is their new album "Floating in Shallow Water" out yet? Just picked
>up the "Beyond the Borderless" ep today; really cool sounds on here (lyrics
>too!), a little different from their "Spatial Specific" -ambient electronic
>experimentation. If anyone has a `Post Contemporary' discography, please
>let me know. Perhaps a web-page?
