Influential English electronic music group formed in Liverpool in 1999
Originating in Liverpool, England, LADYTRON have earned decades of acclaim since their foundation by relentlessly pushing boundaries, carving out new sonic and conceptual space, and refusing to abide by formula or trend.
In the beginning, they revelled in cute situationist mischief: opaque messages, matching uniforms, and live shows in unconventional spaces, such as a disused bank in East Berlin or a bowling alley in a Paris Metro station. In addition, the group, already international in its makeup, placed more emphasis on countries and cities other than its own. Thus, the group’s worldwide recognition quickly grew — playing to audiences in places where few artists went at that time, such as China and Colombia.
