Cujo

Cujo was the first project of Amon Tobin, before he signed to Ninja Tune and started going by his own name. Cujo was scrapped after Adventures In Foam, which was released September 1996. Adventures In Foam was re-released by NinjaTune in 2002 as a two-disc version containing a half-dozen previously unheard tracks. Their press release stated this was because Shadow Records had "been circulating a version of the record with a changed tracklist, different (and unapproved) cover art and mis-titled tracks".
