David James (musician)
Thessalonians (also known as PGR/Thessalonians) were a San Francisco-based electronic music group founded by Kim Cascone and Larry Thrasher. Originally, their compositions focused on infusing drone and experimental music and later integrated elements of ambient, industrial and psychedelic music. Their final line-up was Cascone, Thrasher, Don Falcone, and Paul Neyrinck.

They were joined by David Gardner, David James and Kurt Robinson to form a quintet. This line-up released four albums, three under the name PGR/Thessalonians (the former being the name of an ambient music project by Cascone). Two of the albums were released by Silent Records, the label run by Cascone. The last release by this line-up was the PGR/Thessalonian album ''The Black Field''.

Factsheet Five
''Factsheet Five'' was a periodical mostly consisting of short reviews of privately produced printed matter along with contact details of the editors and publishers. In the 1980s and early 1990s, its comprehensive reviews (thousands in each issue) made it the most important publication in its field, heralding the wider spread of what would eventually be called fanzine or zine culture. Before the widespread adoption of the web and e-mail beginning around 1994, publications such as ''Factsheet Five'' formed a vital directory for connecting like-minded people. It was the literary equivalent to such phenomena as ''International Sound Communication'' in the period of cassette culture. History The magazine was originally published in 1982 by Mike Gunderloy on a spirit duplicator in his bedroom in a slanshack in Alhambra, California, though the first issue notes he was located at Hyde Park neighborhood in Boston. The original focus was science fiction fanzines (the title comes fr ...
