Meat Beat Manifesto is an industrial, electronic, and experimental music act that was started by John Stephen Corrigan (aka Jack Dangers) and Jonny Stephens in 1987 in Swindon, United Kingdom. Led by Jack Dangers as the only permanent member, Meat Beat Manifesto has collaborated with various artists throughout its journey. They worked alongside Consolidated and DJ Spooky to pioneer the early '90s "industrial hip-hop" sound. Widely credited for influencing trip hop, drum & bass, and big beat genres, Meat Beat Manifesto's earlier work has left a lasting impact on the music scene.

Meat Beat Manifesto formed in Swindon in 1987 by Jack Dangers (Meat Beat Manifesto's only permanent member) and Impossible Star is the first full length album in over seven years from the seminal electronic band. Minimal, textural and cinematic in scope, Impossible Star follows the music innovators deeper into more experimental territory. From the thick and discordant soundscape of One to the cut-and-paste pastiche of Bass Playa to the downtempo of T.M.I., Impossible Star is a layered exploration of sounds and rhythms. Meat Beat Manifesto's consistent musical invention has led to all forms of electronic musical experimentation over its 30 year history, from jungle to techno to industrial to dubstep to jazz fusion. Its long string of influential futuristic classics includes such groundbreaking tracks as God O.D., Strap Down, Psyche Out, Helter Skelter, Radio Babylon, Edge of No Control to It's The Music.
