Hexagon Sun artists

Does anyone have links or examples of art other than BoC that has come from Hexagon Sun members? I have seen what I thought was one music video posted, on here probably, a while back. I can't find it though. For some reason I have always been under the impression that an actual studio was built right around the time of MHTRTC. In my opinion there is a huge jump in the quality of their tracks at this point, I wonder if working around their friends/similar artists more frequently would have much to do with this. This quote from an interview in 2005 makes it sound like it is more than only the Sandison brothers working on these tracks:

'Geogaddi' was kind of exorcising demons, and even after we'd set out to do a record like that, smack in the middle of working on it, 9/11 happened. I remember there were a few of us in the studio that day, and we just ended up glued to the TV for the whole day. I think the months after that pushed us into making a darker record, as I'm sure it did with a lot of bands.

I've pondered this myself. I think lack of replies to your question is because nobody knows!

I've always though BOC = two brothers who pretend they're not brothers and are part of this cool collective of pomo hippies making radical electronic music powered by fire in the woods with all their friends and topless women but actually they're two brothers sitting in their mom's basement watching documentaries, crying, and pretending they're part of this sweet collective.

That's something I would post after visiting a beer festival lol, I've stopped posting after beer festivals as I wake up in my mom's basement, crying and pretending I never posted in a drunken haze on watmm a few hours ago. Nice to know me and the Sandisons have something in common.

OP, to answer your question: beerwolf

I've wondered if any of the early, relatively unknown, Benbecula artists had anything to do with Hexagon Sun, perhaps some of the people on this comp?

Of course this is just pure BoC-sanity level speculation though.

Yeah, but we've little else to go on, haven't we? Interesting that few of those artists have done much else...

I think perhaps 'the others' were just spaced out on drugs and did morris dancing round the campfire
