Planetary Assault Systems
UK
British electronic music pioneer Luke Slater is renowned for his vast sonic versatility, having recorded under more than ten distinct monikers since 1989. While projects like The 7th Plain explore lush ambient textures and L.B. Dub Corp leans into deep, dub-infused rhythms, his longest-running and most defining dancefloor alias is Planetary Assault Systems. This project serves as Slater's continuous vehicle for driving, functional techno, engineered specifically for the physical energy of a club rather than casual listening. From seminal releases like The Drone Sector (1997) and Atomic Funkster (2001) to a prolific, ongoing run on Berlin’s legendary Ostgut Ton and his own Mote-Evolver imprint, Planetary Assault Systems remains an unstoppable force in hypnotic, stripped-back electronic music.
