    2 Banks of 4 is a collaboration between Ski and Rob Gallagher (Galliano).
    Rob doesn't sing on the record (apart from a cackling laugh in the
    background of one track) but there are guest appearances from Valerie
    Etienne and Chris Bowden amongst others.

    I'd definitely recommend the album, there are no filler tracks and it is
    great for listening at higher volume levels. The drum programing is
    excellent, never monotonous, and the music help blow away those winter
    evening blues.

    I'm pretty sure that Ski Oakenfull had something to do with the 2 Banks of 4
    album, but it may have just been a guest spot or two.
