History

After leaving Medium Medium, Rees Lewis formed C Cat Trance with original Medium Medium drummer Nigel Kingston Stone.[1] While similar in some respects to Medium Medium, They incorporated World music elements, releasing a self-titled debut mini-LP in 1983 on the Red Flame label.[1][2] Subsequent releases were on the Red Flame sub-label Ink, starting with the "Dreams of Leaving" 12-inch single. They released one album a year between 1985 and 1987 and another in 1992 before splitting up.

John Rees Lewis later returned to a reformed Medium Medium.

Cherry Red released a collection of the band's best material in 2005.[2]

gollark: WAV is just PCM with some kind of header.
gollark: See, there's a real lack of annoying beep generation software out there. When I wanted to generate annoying beeps aka some sine waves for a project, I had to cobble together a Python script to inefficiently generate WAV files.
gollark: Anyway, I have several never-to-be-finished-or-probably-worked on new project ideas:- a simple search engine for osmarks.tk- annoying beep generator in the browser supporting custom frequencies and whatnot- a textual SVG editor thing in which you write code/templates which write SVG
gollark: I'm sure they are.
gollark: Oh, okay then.
