Xela (Manchester-based digital musician John Twells) debuted with the beat-oriented and glitch-infested For Frosty Mornings And Summer Nights (Neo Ouija, 2003 - Type, 2007) and Tangled Wool (2004). His ambient aural collages got progressively darker and gloomier. The Dead Sea (Type, 2006) was virtually a tribute to Italian horror soundtracks of the 1970s, and the four-movement requiem In Bocca Al Lupo (Type, 2008) represented the nadir of his mood.

The Illuminated (Digitalis, 2008) contains two 20-minute pieces of dark ambient music: Black Scripture and Gilted Rose.

Heirs Of The Fire (2009) documented a live performance.
