When techno crossed the Atlantic and made its way to the UK it was embraced, further pioneered and expanded upon by a few key artists - one of them most notably being Luke Slater who is one of the genre’s most chameleonic enigmas. Shifting through its many variants with euphoric clarity, he has become, by now, a living legend.

From his beginnings as a resident at Heaven’s Soundshaft night Troll in London in 1989 and his involvement in the early outdoor rave scene, Luke’s been responsible for some of the most celebrated and richly textured techno of the 90s and he quickly became one of Britain’s emerging talents with seminal releases on Peacefrog, NovaMute and Djax-Up-Beats.

Over the succeeding years, his many forms and guises unravelled, releasing an array of music under his L.B. Dub Corp, Planetary Assault Systems and The 7th Plain projects for the likes of Ostgut Ton and his own Mote-Evolver imprint – not to forget numerous leftfield excursions under various other monikers and countless remixes including Depeche Mode, Madonna, Octave One, Joey Beltram and Kenny Larkin. Expect some undiluted timelesness from him as PAS.
