Biography

Meat Beat Manifesto, a British electronic music group founded in 1987 by Jack Dangers and Jonny Stephens in Swindon, United Kingdom, began as a collaboration of sampling and hip‑hop beats. Their breakthrough came with the 1987 single “Suck Hard”, followed by the debut album Storm the Studio, which established their industrial dance sound in 1989. In 1992 the duo released Satyricon on Mute, expanding into techno and industrial influences, while touring with acts such as Consolidated and Nine Inch Nails. The 1996 double album Subliminal Sandwich on Nothing Records introduced a broader sonic palette and featured collaborations with Mike Powell and others. Subsequent releases—Actual Sounds + Voices (1998), RUOK? (2002), and Storm the Studio RMXS (2003)—showed a progression toward remix culture and live DJing. In 2008 the group signed with Metropolis Records, issuing Autoimmune and the EP Totally Together in 2010, followed by Answers Come in Dreams the same year. The 2018 album Impossible Star marked their latest studio effort. Meat Beat Manifesto’s work has influenced the development of big beat, trip‑hop, and drum and bass, and their tracks have been sampled by major acts such as The Prodigy and Chemical Brothers, cementing their role in the evolution of electronic music.
