'Freely' Stream Listen to
Photographed By Lightning's (pre-Zone) Music |
October 2005 - Chris and Andrew first met in 1982 as members of the
Swansea based, multimedia group, 'Photographed By Lightning'. During August
2005 Andrew digitally mastered PBL's album
'Neither Wings Nor Stones' (circa 1984-85) and PBL
'Live at Townhill Tech (Part 1)' (23rd June 1987). Neither recording has
previously been made available. You can now listen to these newly mastered
recordings of PBL. Listen to PBL's music. The sound quality of PBL's streamed music is good
(stereo, 22.05kHz, 64kbps) though clearly not quite comparable to a CD.
Neither of these recordings is currently available in any other format, only
for stream listening direct from this web site.

World
Serpent Distribution |
August 2004 - Very sad to say that World Serpent
Distribution have stopped trading and are winding up their business.
Zone's distribution has been with the guys at World Serpent since before
their inception, back in the days of "Vinyl Experience" (1989) and "People
Who Can't Distribution" (1990). The 3 director's of World Serpent, Alan,
David (Gibby) & Alison have always supported Zone, regardless of our lack of sales
and self promotion. Potentia & Zone would like to thank Alan, Gibby &
Alison for their efforts over the years, and wish them all the very best
for the future. Potentia are reviewing their options for future
distribution, in this age of digital downloading and the general downturn
in the CD market. More news will be posted when available.

Spiritech Virtual Foundation and Data Whorehouse. Jeremy both sings
on one track and reads spoken text on another. Beware, "The Benefactor"
is coming.

Photographed By Lightning, contributing a truly wild Saxophone on
one track and an exquisite Flute on two other tracks.
- Syd Howells, also of
Photographed By Lightning, singing heroic vocals on one track

Many thanks for everyone who has assisted us in realising this project.

Potentia/Zone Web Site |
January 1999
- Well here it is! Work towards this
Web site started during November 1998, peaking around Christmas & New
Year, finally being launched in early January 1999. We see this Web site
as having several primary functions, namely:-
- Zone's central platform for communication
- A complete and detailed living record of Zone's activities
- An extensive living bibliography of Zone's sources of
inspiration and influence
- Potentia's primary source for offering, or linking to, a
Mail Order service
Both the construction and the ongoing maintenance of this Web site has
been and will be undertaken by Zone. As such we anticipate regular updates
and improvements whenever appropriate.
