Cola Boy was a duo consisting of Janey Lee Grace and Andrew Midgley. They gained recognition in the late 1980s for their studio work with Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs before forming Cola Boy. Janey, a former backing singer for various pop acts, including [a17641] and Patsy Kensit’s [a74481], brought her vocal talent to the duo. Their first single, "7 Ways," featured vocals by [a36147] on the original white label version but was later re-recorded with Janey's vocals due to contractual obligations. The success of this track led to a deal with Arista Records.

Despite their initial success, Cola Boy's second single, "He Is Cola," did not perform well commercially. This marked the end of their contract with Arista Records, and the duo decided to part ways. While Janey wanted to continue working on new material as Cola Boy, Andrew pursued a different musical direction with his project Blinder.

Blinder achieved some cult success on the northern England and Scottish rave circuit before disbanding in 1993. Following this, Andrew transitioned into journalism and composing music for television.

Deep in View is the debut album from former Ought members Tim Darcy (vocals, guitar) and Ben Stidworthy (bass) alongside Evan Cartwright (drums). Titled after philosopher Alan Watts' anthology of the same name, the record is built on a foundation of elegant guitar grooves and knotty rhythms, offering commentary on modern life and technology through curious lyrical vignettes, where quotidian objects and scenes are never just as they seem. Deep In View is equally a product of introspective songwriting as it is a consideration of the abstract landmarks of an increasingly media-mediated society. It also presents the most concise and melodic songs Darcy and Stidworthy have written to date. The album sounds streamlined and intentional, as the rhythms of the punchy and exuberant guitar parts, urgent basslines, and unexpected drum patterns all tangle with each other in an elegant dance. At the center of all these elements is Darcy, whose characteristically wry voice shifts from detached to decisive to distressed, throughout the album's course. Both enigmatically dense in meaning but precisely intricate in sound, Deep in View is an album that sparks novel interpretations with every listen, like an art object that takes on new shape with each angle from which you hold it.
