The first recordings using Tom's new set up were released on the Spymania label. This was an offshoot of Zoom Records, which was based in Camden Town and was set up by Tom's school friends Hardy Finn and Paul Fowler who worked at Zoom. The first e.p. was called "Conumber". "Conumber" exhibits the influence of mid-1990s jungle, which at that point had eclipsed his interest in other forms of dance music. Tom cites "Babylon" by DJ Splash, "Dub Plate Style" by Marvellous Kane and "R.I.P." by Remarc as being particularly influential on him. But a very specific influence came from Luke Vibert's recordings as Plug, especially the track "Military Jazz" from the "Plug 2" e.p. of which he says: "I recall hearing that on the radio in the summer of 1995. I was dumbfounded, I thought I was listening to some funk group and suddenly this massive Amen breakbeat kicked in. It sounded like the future." This influence came to fuel many of Tom's ideas over the next two years, in particular the album "Hard Normal Daddy" and becomes more apparent on the second Spymania EP "Alroy Road Tracks". Another influence at this time came from frequenting the club "Speed", which was put on by DJ's Fabio and LTJ Bukem and was held in central London.
