Followed by a fourth on the singular Outer Reaches (2020) and were part of the Cafe Oto Takuroku digital series. Their latest album 'forgeries' was released in early 2023.

Stuart Heaney & Chris De Selincourt 2022) is the soundtrack to an art film documentary about the birth of the psychedelic liquid lightshows.
