MBM has a new album. (Long-time fans take note: the jazziness of this album is something of a departure -- more Spooky than Subliminal, if you will.)

In Meat Beat Manifesto’s nearly twenty-year existence, what began as a collaboration with fellow Perennial Divide member Jonny Stephens quickly became a revolving door forum for multi-instrumentalist Jack Dangers’ investigations into sonic possibilities and contemporary electronica rhythms.

For more than 20 years, Meat Beat Manifesto has remained on the cutting edge of sound design.

At the root of MBM's work is rhythm -- sometimes hypnotic, elsewhere more insistently dance-floor. But it’s more than just about the beat. "Want Ads One" and "Want Ads Two" have a deadpan voice reading a series of seemingly disconnected newspaper ads that just might reveal a greater link on further examination.

(These "Want Ads" tracks are creepy, by the way.)
