Meat Beat Manifesto

Meat Beat Manifesto, founded by Jack Dangers in the late 1980s, is a pioneering act in the realms of industrial, breakbeat, and electronic music. Their early work combined elements of hip-hop, dub, and industrial noise, creating a sound that was experimental yet danceable. Albums like Storm the Studio (1989) and 99% (1990) established their reputation for innovative sample manipulation and genre-blurring compositions, making them a major influence on artists like The Prodigy and Nine Inch Nails.

Beyond their contributions to electronic music, Meat Beat Manifesto has been a staple in shaping the evolution of sampling culture and sound design. Their later albums incorporated jazz, ambient, and trip-hop influences while maintaining their characteristic heavy beats and abstract soundscapes. With a career spanning decades, Jack Dangers has continued to push sonic boundaries, solidifying Meat Beat Manifesto’s legacy as one of the most forward-thinking electronic acts.
