Discovery (Jewelry album)
Discovery is the debut studio album by K-pop girl group, Jewelry. It was released on March 30, 2001 on Star Empire Entertainment.
Overview
Discovery marks the start of Jewelry's career. Members of the group at this time were Park Jung-ah, Lee Ji-hyun, Jung Yoo-jin, and Jun Eun-mi. Jewelry's current image was very lovable and cutesy, and the album was full of cute pop songs about love and relationships. Because of the simplistic concept of the album, sales were less than spectacular, and is deemed as Jewelry's worst album to date, mainly because of the poor vocals, and Park Jung Ah's vocals were heavily emphasized, while the other members vocals were blended together as one. Promoted songs from this album were 사랑해 (I Love You) and 이젠 (Yet). After promotion of the album was finished, Jung Yoo Jin and Jun Eun Mi were replaced with Cho Min-ah and Seo In-young, and the new formation begun working on the next album.

Space (Jimmy Cauty album)
Space is a 1990 ambient house concept album by Jimmy Cauty under the alias Space. Originally intended to be The Orb's debut album, Space was refactored for release as a solo album following Cauty's departure from that group. Space was independently released on KLF Communications, the record label formed to distribute the work of Cauty's other project, The KLF.
Origins
Space began as a collaboration between Dr. Alex Paterson and Jimmy Cauty, the original line-up of The Orb. It was, according to Cauty's record label KLF Communications, to be The Orb's debut album, but when Cauty left The Orb in early 1990 to concentrate on producing music as The KLF with Bill Drummond, he took the recordings with him. Reworked to remove Paterson's contributions, the album was released on the KLF Communications label, with Cauty alone receiving credit.
According to Cauty, "It was a jam, all done on Oberheim keyboards. Loads of samples... were chucked in there as well. I started on Monday morning and by Friday it was all done".
