Digital Pressure (also known by the alias Naxos Project) is one of those quintessentially early British hard trance outfits. Made up of John Stembridge (i.e. Jay Walker, JK Walker, Apogee, MTW, etc.) and Steve Knight, along with Marcos and the Tidy guys (Guyver, Paul Maddox, K90, Lee Haslam) and a number of other guys, many of whom dabbled in hard house as much as hard trance (or many of them are properly seen as hard house artists who dabbled in hard trance, actually) they're a great example of the UK scene, which had a lot of subtle differences to the scenes in the German and Low countries scenes, or the north Italian scenes, etc.
"Hybrid" was the b-side to "Hey Kids". Half of Digital Pressure, John Stembridge, is sometimes called the British version of Scot Project, and while that might be overstating things a bit, he was quite prolific under a variety of aliases, and his work is really pretty awesome. Sometimes, as with Scot Project, his remixes are even better remembered today than his original tracks, but he did lay down some real classics while he was at it during the heyday of his career.
