Label : Evolution records. The man behind Q-tex is a Scottish DJ and musician called Scott Brown. At the beginning in 1991, the project was a solo techno act. He collaborated with his friend and university classmate Gordon Anderson and together they composed music at home on sythetizers that they bought with their money. They called themselves at first G-Tech, then G-Tex (a reference to Manchester's G-Mex arena). The name finally evolved into Q-Tex.
Vocals on Celebration were done by Shanna. Later, they teamed with Gillian Tennant and Alan Todd. Q tex preformed at Mayday (The raving society, November 1994) and even made a remix of We Are Different (On the maxi Members Of Mayday - We are different remixes (we are mayday)). Most songs has nice refrains and catchy synths, and are more rave than euro. I Believe In You was a very good track with an uplifting melody. The album Into The Light came in 1997 and also featured a megamixed bonus-CD that was done in pure rave-style. Scott Brown founded his label Evolution Records.
They have also released a series of hardcore singles with the name Equazion. Then Scott Brown left the project to focus on other porjects (Plus System, The Scotchman, Interstate, Bass-X). Q-tex disbanded in 1997 because of disagreements between the members, but songs kept on being releasing under the project name after that.
Scott Brown nowadays lives in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire

With his mega-hit Dreams, the Quench project revealed to the world a new dance trend : the dream house movement. They were quickly imitated by projects such as Bell-Bar.
Under the name Quench, Melbourne based producer Christopher J Dolan had his single Dreams licensed all over the world. It sold a million copies, went top 10 on the mainstream charts in France, hit #2 on the UK dance charts and broke Top 20 on the mainstream chart. It was massive in Italy, Belgium, Scandinavia and Germany. In Australia too it was massive on the club scene, but as dance music hadn't crossed over to mass market at the time Quench was a way bigger star overseas than on his home turf. CJ had been Australian DMC DJ Champion, and now DJ's around the world were spinning his music, and such clubland legends as Carl Cox and Paul Oakenfold included Dreams on their mix CDs. CJ Dolan followed through with releases under such names as Chrome and Narcotik scoring international trance and progressive house hits, which found their way on to the turntables of the likes as Sasha and Digweed etc and on to huge selling dance compilations, including Renaissance, Global Underground and the Best Of Platipus. Quench had the underground sussed,
Having set up his own state of the art studio in Melbourne, Quench started to create his second album, Consequenchial. Tracks such as Hooplazaform, Class 101 and Relaxing Signals helped enhancing Quench's reputation in clubland but crossed his rep over to a way bigger audience. But on top of that the addition of guest vocalists made Consequenchial way more song driven than any of CJ's previous work. Dance radio has already thrown its arms around the album's first single Embrace The Sunshine, with its winter-warming melody and breezy vocal from Lisa Worley, which reached #100 on the ARIA singles chart. Infinite Hold may ride on an edgy drum and bass rhythm track but Lisa added a vocal that's as strong and warm as latte. Open Book had the ambience and soulfulness of a great seal track with a surprise vocal from Adam Thompson. Life's Little Pleasures had a progressive house heart beating behind a song that should be all over radio.
With Gab Olivier, C. J. Dolan produced, composed and arranged Narcotik's single Conditions in 2001.
In 2003, Quench released best of album Dreams
In 2005 and 2007, C. J. Dolan produced 2 albums for The Winston Giles Orchestra.
2015 : Quench was back with a new album, Afterglow and a EP entitled Reality Radio.
