About Neil Landstrumm
A fixture of the UK electronic music scene since 1994 Neil Landstrumm has
released work on many of the most recognised labels in the industry.
Starting with Peacefrog, shifting gears to Berlins’ Tresor Records he then
upped the bass-game onto arguably the UKs’ greatest electronic label of the
moment, Planet Mu. Neil's first album for Mu "Restaurant of Assassins" saw
Landstrumm hijacking varied influences from techno, dubstep, garage and
breaks as well as vintage 90s rave and Sheffield sounds. He is an artist who
always seems to be at the spearhead of experimental, dancehall low frequency
electronics with his Scandinavia label signature. A pioneer of new styles
within techno, often copied and imitated Landstrumm has enjoyed a strong
pedigree within the electronic scene. The success of Restaurant's ravestep
sound led Neil onto a string of sessions for the BBC, a main feature on the
German "Slices" DVD and relentless live tour dates all throughout 2008,
Landstrumm's new LP on Planet Mu, "Lord for £39", expands on the steel-city
industrial-rave styles set out in his last full-length venture "Restaurant
of Assassins". With several cameos from such stately artists as Carlton
Killawatt, Ebola and Si Begg, the vibe is "Imperial British Bass
Psychedelia" and all it's stylish bleepy trimmings. Freshly imported
southern-fried krunk, and sweet island dancehall are mixed with the
refreshed roots of UK rave, steppers, grime and garage to brew an
addictively low frequency elixir. Cult analogue gear and digital production techniques meet in the Witness Rooms to a useful and sovereign effect. British electronic heritage is neatly woven into a new modern bass
experience
