about

‘Teratology’ double vinyl press release limited to 200 copies.



Lagowski's 'Teratology' (named after the study of the causes and patterns of abnormal development) is a collection of hard, driving tunes that was originally self-released on CDR in 2003. The album is a collection of dark and atmospheric prototype and original techno tracks, featuring heavy use of synthesizers, samplers and digital effects, and its bleak and haunting soundscape reflects this theme.



‘Teratology’ is notable for its use of cutting-edge electronic production techniques at the time, such as convolution sample synthesis and time stretching (bear in mind that these tracks were recorded between 1989-1992). Lagowski's use of unconventional sound sources and processing techniques helped to push the boundaries of electronic music and influenced many artists in the genre.

The album is also noteworthy for its integration of industrial and ambient music elements, which was not a common practice in techno at the time. This blending of genres and sounds helped to create a unique and innovative sonic landscape that has since become a hallmark of electronic music.

Understandably, 'Teratology' is a landmark album in the history of UK electronic music, representing a significant step forward in the evolution of techno and influencing many artists in the genre to explore new sonic territory. So it is a fitting testament that Fill-Lex Records have brought this study of warped recording methods back under the microscope, in the form of this double pressing, collecting the tunes together for the first time on vinyl.



Lagowski biography



Andrew Lagowski is a British musician and producer who has been active in the electronic music scene since the 1980s. He has released a diverse range of music under various aliases, including Lagowski, Legion, S.E.T.I., Clans of the Alphane Moon and Project Ghost, and was a member of the seminal and cult band NAGAMATZU

Lagowski's early work focused on experimental and industrial music, with albums such as ‘Nadir’ and Legion’s ’Die Datenschleuder' showcasing his interest in exploring unconventional sound sources and production techniques.

In the early 1990s, Lagowski began to move towards a more techno-oriented sound, releasing an influential series of 12” singles on the Chromium Industries label. These helped to establish Lagowski as a key figure in the techno and electronic music scenes.

His musical output has continued to evolve and expand over the years, with recent releases such as 'Secrets of Numbers' and S.E.T.I.’s ‘Sleep Environments for Interplanetary Travel’ showcasing his continued experimentation with sound and production techniques.

Throughout his career, Lagowski's music has been characterised by its innovative use of electronic instrumentation, as well as his willingness to blend and cross-pollinate genres. His diverse musical catalogue has earned him a loyal following and cemented his place as a respected and influential figure in the world of electronic music.
