I'm -25 and I know about Jam & Spoon, it is a shame though.

RIP Markus Loffel

Stella was released as Jam and Spoon iirc? it certainly kick started the whole trance thing.

Either way, RIP Herr Loffel

bought the albuy many years ago: Tripomatic Fairytales - awesome album, and one song - near the beginning i think - was simply awesome.
