Sarah
Taylor
Sarah slipped
out of the womb in Belfast, Northern Ireland, singing. During her
early years, she sang a cappella until a brief tussle with a guitar
opened up new vistas of expression. She could write the kinds of songs
she'd always wanted to sing, but something was missing. There was
an overwhelming need for raunchy backbeats, scratches and industrial
sounds to offset her voice. Her brother, singer-songwriter/producer,
Dave Taylor, came to her rescue by fostering Sarah's early efforts
and then hooking her up with her first electronic collaborator, Biffy
Perdu. In 2001 the folks at the Foundation to Assist Canadian Talent
on Record (F.A.C.T.O.R.) gave Sarah a grant that allowed her to get
into the studio with Dave and Biffy. After learning the ropes, she
set up a pseudo-studio in her home and began to record and write tracks
on her own. Sarah currently lives in Vancouver, Canada and works remotely
with Biffy Perdu, who now resides in Montreal, and Kasius who lives
in Charleston, South Carolina.

Biffy
Perdu
Musician, producer, megalomaniac, and lech, Biffy Perdu hatches his
nefarious schemes in Montreal, Quebec. When he is not afforded the
pleasure of working with the lovely Ms. Sarah Taylor in CIRCLE92 he can be found hard at work with his own project, Medulla.

Kasius
Kasius spent two years looking for a female voice to compliment
his underground, down-tempo style before he found Sarah on her MP3.com
site in November of 2001. He wanted to take beautiful songs and
make them dark. Sarah's songs and vocal stylings were just what
the doctor ordered. His dirty, underground style provides an eerie
compliment to his day-job where he tinkers in the innards of jet
planes. Kasius lives in Charleston, South Carolina where he's currently
working on his own project, Dying's Easy.
