Artist History
Superluminal Pachyderm was created in October 1999. The sole member of this project had dabbled from time to time with what could best be called "idiot projects." A lot of what makes up Superluminal Pachyderm can be derived from these experiments. In March 2000, Superluminal Pachyderm made its debut on mp3.com and the world has never been the same. |
