     Mark Blissenden and Andrew Burdall met at Spiral Groove Records in 
     Hull where Bliss worked. Both were keen on Deep House music, Bliss 
     being a DJ with the Nottingham based DIY collective. At that time  
     Burdy was a student who had been involved with the local indie rock
     scene, or what there was of it.                                    
                                                                        
     They started to write music together in 1994 but it was another    
     year before their relationship with the Pork label started when    
     they met Porky at the legendary club, The Room, in Hull in 1995. At
     the time they were recording with a view to releasing a 12" but    
     Porky and Steve Cobby suggested that they should follow it through 
     to become an album. Thus in August 1996, "10,000 Years Beneath the 
     Street" became their debut album. Ever prolific they released their
     second and third albums "Bridging Two Worlds" and "One Two Freakà" 
     in 1997 with "Another Day at the Orifice" appearing in 1998. A year
     on and "Swimming" marked their fifth release. Featuring the liquid 
     jazz guitar of Tom Harland the album has been well received by both
     the public and the press. Spurred on by this reaction Baby Mammoth 
     are putting the finishing touches to their sixth album, Motion     
     Without Pain, due for release sometime in Autumn '99.              
                                                                        
     Andrew Burdall says "We work in a very natural way. Basically we   
     turn up, one of us with an idea or inspiration and see where the   
     original idea takes us. Often a long way from our starting point.  
     Wherever possible we try to write as originally as we can and we   
     are beginning to add more and more live elements as we continue to 
     develop and learn. It would be physically impossible for us to stop
     writing and any period of inactivity on the music front leads to   
     irritation and a need for musical therapy"                         
                                                                        
     "For the future we are hoping to expand our remix work, to develop 
     a new and different second string project and take the Baby Mammoth
     experience Live as a four piece incorporating Tom Harland on guitar
     and Andy Dimmack on drums."                                        
                                                                        
     Quote: "Two white, no sugar". --pork.co.uk
