Kris Weston

Kristian "Kris" Weston is a British electronic musician, producer and remixer best known for his work as a member of the Orb. Around the beginning of his career, he worked with Andrew Weatherall on remixes of Meat Beat Manifesto, remixed for Primal Scream, Saint Etienne, U2 and others. He was still a teen when working on the first few albums by the Orb.

Career
Late 1980s – early 1990s In 1990 and 1991, Weston performed remixes for many pop groups including Depeche Mode, Miranda Sex Garden, and Bananarama under the name Thrash. The Orb In 1991 while working as a studio engineer, Kris Weston was invited by Alex Paterson to accompany him in live performances of the Orb. His technical abilities allowed the Orb to craft panoramic sounds portraying aspects of space travel, especially the launch of Apollo 11 in their album ''The Orb's Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld''. Paterson and Weston wrote their next single, "Blue Room". Assisting with the recording was bassist Jah Wobble, keyboardist Miquette Giraudy, and guitarist Steve Hillage. He brought his technical and creative expertise to the Eno-influenced ambience on U.F.Orb. However, in an interview with i-D, Weston reportedly attributed the split to Paterson, saying that Paterson "never did 50% of the work." Post-Orb In the early 2000s, Weston produced and remixed for Japanese music artist and singer Coppé. In 2003, Thrash formed Justablip Records, an Open Source/Creative Commons license style music label. ==Discography==
