Of all the monikers belonging to techno veteran Luke Slater, Planetary Assault Systems boasts the longest shelf life, and arguably the most success. The music he produces as PAS fits the name well—it’s otherworldly and atonal, as if the scattered pitches were attacking all preconceived musical sensibilities.
