LUMP
(FABRIC / FUTUREDUB / KARLOFF)

Somewhere between North Finland and its border with Lapland, home to vast space, iridescent landscapes, and ice comes Arttu Snellman aka Lump. As a teenager in the late eighties Arttu was struck, like any budding techie confined by many months of cold and darkness, by the new electronic sounds coming out of the US and UK. Profound love for acid house and emerging bleep techno forced the acquisition of turntables, relocation to Helsinki, and a DJ career interrupted by mandatory Finnish military service. 5 days later he was discharged for 'mental reasons.'

Relieved, Arttu found himself chosen for a four year animation course in the southwest city of Turku. While in school during the mid nineties Arttu started to amass obscure synths and eventually built up a small studio. Ambient soundscapes and lo-fi grooves started to emerge. In 1998 he moved to London and became a freelance animator.

Arttu's productions progressively traveled to the deeper and dubbier side of techno, dug out even further by London's heavy reggae and dub culture. Tracks were mixed live directly to DAT. In 2002 the first Lump EP emerged on Berlin's (then Cologne's) Sub Static label. More and more time was devoted to music than animation. Next year London's Sued Electronic crew took notice and the first Lump live shows surfaced. Gaining momentum, Lump released a second EP on Sub Static sub-label Karloff. Philadelphia native turned Berliner Jay Haze then approached Lump for his net label Textone. 2 net releases later, Jay, taken both by Lumpís music and his jubilant personality, commissioned a Lump EP for his Future Dub imprint. During the long hot summer of 2005 sweating at the machines of his London studio, the development of that EP swelled into Lumpís first full length album. ìLump Dubî emerges as a double vinyl LP and CD (featuring 3 bonus tracks).
