sad times indeed! :(

Sad news, I hadn't realised how much of his music I was influenced by until I read this.:(

Me too. I didn't know some tunes I used to listen to were produced by him. I guess they needed a fine producer up there to spice things up!

RIP.

Never knew he was on the Deltron album too... wow.

yeah that hit me pretty hard...i actually met him once...

Yes, it is very sad when somebody so young dies & he was much respected. He lived around the corner from me and we went to the same school. He was a couple of years younger than me so I wasn't a close friend but we had mutual friends and similar music tastes growing up. He once loaned me a couple of old keyboards & I loaned him my Kraftwerk albums before he had released LFO. I never got the albums back but he probably made better use of them than I did. He was always talked about as a local legend in Lofthouse & Leeds. R.I.P Mark Bell.
