Meat Beat Manifesto

This industrial, electronic, experimental music act was started by John Stephen Corrigan (aka [[artist:Jack Dangers]]) and [[artist:Jonny Stephens]], in 1987 in Swindon, United Kingdom. Jack Dangers has led the group and been the only permanent member, collaborating with other members along the way. Meat Beat Manifesto's earlier work is widely credited with influencing trip-hop, drum & bass, and big beat. Their tracks, Radio Babylon in particular, have been widely sampled, including by artists such as [[artist:The Prodigy]], [[artist:Goldie]], [[artist:Aphex Twin]], and [[artist:The Chemical Brothers]]. Meat Beat Manifesto worked with [[artist:Consolidated]] and [[artist:68336]] to pioneer the early '90s "industrial hip-hop" sound.
