If you go to the hospital website there's tons of info. But basically it's
run by two guys Chris & Tony, who used to be Izit and run Tongue N Groove
records--one of the original acid jazz labels. They also record house music
as the Future Homosapiens. They hate the term but they are one of the
mainstays of the jazzy jungle scene. If you ever need a Hospital release we
usually have every release that's in print.. Plastic Surgery 2 comes out
this weekend as well FYI along with the Carlito & Addiction 12" sampler from
it.
I keep giving those guys a hard time about putting out an Izit remix album
but they don't want to do it :)

Shame you haven't heard any of the Hospital stuff - it's all good.
I first got into them whilst I was still playing d'n'b a few years ago. I
was going through a bit of a funky d'n'b phase
and I just had to keep playing the London Elektricity - Songs In the Key of
Knife stuff.
If you're on this list though it's probably worth heading straight to the
Outpatients LP.
Can't wait for volume 2.
By the way has anyone got any background/history on Hospital - like how they
got started, who runs it? that kind of stuff...
