A chameleonic enigma, Luke Slater is renowned for his ability to bring together seemingly unrelated sonic textures, moving from one genre to another with euphoric clarity. Under the alias L.B.Dub Corp, the 1990s techno legend – also known as Planetary Assault Systems – crafts a refreshing take on house via established labels Mote-Evolver and Ostgut Ton. Drawing on the moody resonance of dub, on albums such as 2013’s Unknown Origin, Slater pays homage to the legacy of roots culture, joining forces with British-Rastafarian poet, playwright and outspoken activist Benjamin Zephaniah for a potent vocal collaboration.
