Profile:
Formed in November '84 when Guy Gausden joined Journey Through, the trio previously formed by Jon Marsh, Steve Waddington and Tim Harvard.

After releasing Happiness and its sister remix album Blissed Out in 1990 they returned in 1992, by which time Waddington had been replaced by Jon's wife: Helena Marsh.

Review by trancephorm Feb 10, 2004
I'm surprised almost no one gave his opinion about Beloved. The band is definitely worth mentioning. It's a fairly unique mixture of house, techno and commercial music. Really fantastic in some moments, driven by clear ideas of love, freedom... etc... :)
