What happened to Pentatonik's comeback?

I used to be an avid fan of Simeon Bowring's output under the Pentatonik moniker in the early 90's. He was supposed to have returned last year with a new Pentatonik album called "The Five Angels" but I don't think that have materialized yet? Anybody here know what happened?

There's a recent interview with Bowring here (http://www.bigchill.net/story/888/penta ... rview.html), where he also briefly discusses Orbital.

I dug out Pentatonik's 'anthology' just yesterday and reminded myself just how brilliant his stuff was.

I know Simeon's been doing lots of stuff with A1People over the years,I guess that's taking up most of his time but I would love to see some more new Pentatonik material.I suppose that kind of sound has a much more limited appeal in the current musical climate,a real shame as he's a great artist.

knew i'd seen that name somewhere very recently...... he'd posted on kirsty hawkshaw's myspace page, mentioning that a song with her vocals is now on the player on his myspace page - which also says the pentatonik album's coming out in august.

*edit* the second song on the player is kirsty too, that one's been there for quite a while. i really like them both, if that's what pentatonik sounds like then i'd better check some more out

That's excellent news

Both the track on myspace and one that has been on a HD sampler sounds great. I really look forward to the new Pentatonik album.
