Psychonauts

The Psychonauts are Paul Mogg and Pablo Clements. Two school friends from Yeovil in Somerset. They became friends through a shared love of hip hop and disco. They started a club night known as the Night Of Cookers and mixed up hip hop, house and techno. After making a mix tape and sending it to Tim Goldsworthy (now of the DFA), who was working at Mo'Wax at the time, they moved to London. They mixed the notable James Lavelle Cream Live mix as well as his Tribal Gathering mix. In 1998 they managed to fit most of the Mo'Wax back catalogue into a 40 minute mix known as Time Machine.

Sir

There is more than one artists by the name of SIR: 1. Formerly a husband/wife duo (divorced during the production of "Trapped in a World of Make Believe") from Melbourne, Australia, Sir specializes in minimal, down-tempo, haunting pop/folk that, at its roots, is certainly more creepy than catchy. The music is cinematic & dreamy with a strong sense of unease. The arrangements generally include church organs, lonesome guitars, and vintage, dusty ambience. 2. Sir is a queercore band from Philadelphia, PA. Sir is fronted by Jesse Adams on vocals and trumpet.
