Matt Saunders and John Hanson make up Magnetophone, an eclectic British electronica duo equally inspired by pop, electronic pioneers like Morton Subotnick, contemporary electronic artists like Autechre, and Krautrock. Early releases on underground labels like Earworm and Static Caravan led to their signing to 4AD, where they released their debut album I Guess Sometimes I Need to be Reminded of How Much You Love Me, which arrived in fall 2000.
