Consisting of bassist Robert Donne, guitarist/vocalist Mark Nelson, and Carter Brown on keyboards, Labradford are an experimental ambient/post-rock group from Richmond, Virginia. Incorporating electronics as well as non-traditional arrangement and production techniques, the group's soundtrack-y, effects-heavy sonic landscapes operate in a vein closely allied with groups such as <a href="spotify:artist:2IcFCj6c6iRJQhXhNGu6dT">Experimental Audio Research</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:336fB3AJgK8AvHX5bD8d9A">Flying Saucer Attack</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:6Xuaooorz7j46y1UrWxXMd">Gastr del Sol</a>, and have earned the group high praise among a diverse variety of different audiences. The trio have released material through American indies Merge and Kranky, as well as the Kiwi rock label Flying Nun and <a href="spotify:artist:3Rj0tDHoX7C5NFq5DKIpHt">Stereolab's</a> Duophonic imprint. Though occasionally incorporating vocal and rhythmic elements, the group rely most often on the drone aesthetic, mixing looping guitar effects and long keyboard passages with snippets of barely-audible voice and assorted found objects on records like 1994's Prazision, 1995's Stable Reference, 1996's self-titled effort and 1997's Mi Media Naranja. 1999 brought the release of a new album, E Luxo So, as well as a tour with <a href="spotify:artist:4svpOyfmQKuWpHLjgy4cdK">Godspeed You Black Emperor!</a> and their Festival Of Drifting series, which also featured appearances from <a href="spotify:artist:2oAUWVDrNRE76jqj9IkVK6">Pole</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0xBkYJzwFzcIYev4fOkvk0">Matmos</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:5O733K6namjDtLx5PKTGpD">Papa M</a>. The ultra-minimal Fixed::Context followed two years later. ~ Sean Cooper, Rovi
