Silicone Soul, composed of techno heads Graeme Reedie and Craig Morrison, carries the torch load-bearing club/dance music in Scotland. Hailing from Glasgow, Reedie and Morrison instantly clicked as kids, for the deuce were punk misfits wHO loved music. They formed a stripe, Dead City Radio, and played unnumerable gigs in and around their hometown. The fire of the deuce, however, flickered out after Morrison witnessed a Primal Scream show, and most at once they scrapped their obnoxious embrangle for an electronic lookout. The early '90s were fagged frolicking with techtronics, palling around with Slam's Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle patch gaining confidence as house music makers. Forming Depth Perception Records by 1996 and establishing Silicone Soul as a legit dissemble, Reedie and Morrison inked a deal with Soma in 1998 and released trine raved tracks, "Mounting Walls," "All Nite Long," and "Right on 4 Tha Darkness." The duet gained praise from some of the genre's forerunners (Laurent Garnier, Pete Tong, Andrew Weatherall) and played festival dates at Roskilde and T in the Park, odd perfectionists in their scope of intricate family music. Debut LP A Soul Thing followed in 2000.
