One of the most forward-looking producers in the continuing Chicago renaissance of the 1990s, Gemini recorded for nu-house labels like Cajual and Relief in 1993 but later issued singles and LPs for such wide-ranging imprints as Disko B, Peacefrog, Distance, Makeout Music, NRK and later, his own co-founded Guidance Records. He began recording early in the decade, and gained fame for the minimalist flavor of Cajual twelves like Tangled Thoughts and Duality. Gemini debuted his album work in late 1997 with two almost concurrent LPs, In and Out of the Fog and Lights and Imagine-A-Nation. His third full-length In Neutral was released before the end of the year, showing him to be anything but that.
