Responsible for over 300 albums since 1982, Bill Laswell has consistently broken down boundaries, redrawn musical frontiers and created some of the most innovative and successful stylistic hybrids to be heard anywhere. Laswell's approach on his own discs, or those of any number of side groups and collaborators, is to seek out and engage what might be called 'master musicians' from a host of different cultures and fuse their talents together in the studio. The central tenet of his philosophy has always been: music knows no boundaries, only the music business does.
