During 2002, I decided to do something completely different and stop recording on my own. Using the Internet, I hooked up with another guitarist by the name of Andrew Osborne.

Under the name of LOAD (made up from our initials), we recorded an instrumental album using loops and our two very different guitar sounds. Andrew was more of a guitarists' guitarist and played nylon acoustic and bass, while I was responsible for almost everything else.

The tracks here are rather good and include a Darren Lock composition "Reality Lives on Pleasure" which features an Andrew Osborne middle section and some deliciously rubber bass on "King Arthropod".

Unfortunately, our partnership was short-lived, as Andrew decided to call it a day on music and to concentrate on having babies!
