Saiko Pod aka Koxbox aka Psychopod is back!
Stalwarts of the danish scene for some time Frank e and Ian Ion starting working together in the early 90s. After a couple of singles under
the name 'Koxbox' they got picked up by german superstar DJ 'Sven Vaeth', who signed them up to his seminal 'Harthouse' label.
In 1991 they brought their second album 'Dragon Tales' on englands popular electronic label 'Blue Room'. In the same year they made a lot of remixes for
bands like 'Slinky Wizard' or 'Juno Reactor' and start their second project 'Psychopod' wich released a couple of succesful singles on 'T.I.P.' records.
In the summer of 1999 'Koxbox' put the finishing touches to 'The Great Unknown'. This was a radical departure from the known 'Koxbox' style, slower and
more funky, but retaining the crystalline production and exquisite application of state of the art technology for which the band is known. After the success
of 'The great Unknown', they set out to work on the 'Psychopod' project and give it a new spin. After the demise of 'T.I.P' records they decided to take the
project in a new, more club oriented direction and change the name to 'Saiko Pod'.
Now the first 'Saiko Pod' album was finished and licensed to 'Spiral Trax'. Songs like 'Silent Running', 'Groove Moderator' with their massive club
potential have already caused huge attention from across the board and will soon be remixed by top scandinavian acts.
The magnicant downbeat of 'Wednesday', plus the full-on assault of 'Magnetic Forces', 'Apollo' and 'Tron' are making 'Phutures and Options' one of the most
mature trance albums in ages.
74 minutes of intelligent trance and downbeat that builds on the 'Koxbox' tradition for punch and innovation!
Style: Psy Trance
Released: June 2002/26
