Maps Of Jupiter

Alex Botten hooked up with Richie Ferguson (guitar), Aimi (drums and voice) and Claire (bass and voice) to form the lo-fi shamblepop quartet Maps Of Jupiter. A demo sent to Perry from Avrocar resulted in a one off single deal with Earworm which saw the 'Six Stereo Recordings' 7" EP released in March of 1998. The band played a short UK tour in January of 1998 and then splintered acrimoniously in May of that year. Richie, Claire and Aimi continued briefly as The Electric Company before Richie also left and formed Tacoma Radar.
