INFO
Reflecting on a career spanning three decades, Luke Slater is a true dance music legend. The British producer has not only been pivotal in the rise of tech no but his work continues to play a vital role in driving the genre forward, par ticularly under his Planetary Assault Systems name. Following its launch in 2006 , Slater's L.B.Dub Corp moniker has been responsible for refreshing house music on labels like Mote-Evolver and Ostgut Ton, with the latter hosting the pseudony m's debut album in 2013. 'Side Effects' is the project's first body of work sinc e then.

"I wrote the tracks over the last year between being on the r oad as P.A.S. and playing a few L.B.Dub Corp house sets, which naturally evolved into 'Side Effects' almost accidentally" – Luke Slater

Crashin g stabs and a rolling hook inaugurate the album in 'Reel One' before the meander ing 'Night Time Hawk' demonstrates effervescent effects and bursts of white nois e. Commanding kicks and a moody bassline make up the robust 'Edge 7' whilst 'IEL BEE' exhibits a bouncy aesthetic complete with intricate melodies. 'Float When Y ou Can' is dark and ominous from the off but an echoing note sequence adds a gli mmer of light, making way for the reverberating mechanics of 'Bass Machine' befo re leading into the twisted sounds and ghostly air of 'Forever In A Day'. Nearin g the end, 'LBEES Jam' is the most lighthearted track on the album with its twin kling lead melody until Slater rounds off the release with a soulful and vocal d riven affair 'All Got To Live'.
