 Wright's first commercially available releases were under the pseudonym Germ.Described as "one of the most influential, under-recognized forces of innovation in the European experimental electronic music scene" (Sean Cooper, Allmusic), Germ was initially a solo bedroom project but grew with the aid of engineer John Dalby at Finsbury Park Studios to encompass collaborations with Hilary Jeffery (trombone), Matt Miles (double bass) and Nicholas Bullen (electric bass).Germ released three EPs and two albums, "Gone" and "Parrot" on General Productions Recordings (GPR) in 1995.
