Gez Varley

After LFO basically disintegrated in the later ’90s and Tag Bell continued to create for Björk among others, the spouse from the duo, Gez Varley, began his own solo career using a 1997 album for Studio room !K7. After supporters of LFO’s 1991 Frequencies LP (still perhaps one of the most reputed electronic albums ever) waited over five years for the follow-up, the finish came immediately after LFO’s sophomore record, 1996’s Progress. Varley’s early adulation of hip-hop and electro — including Juan Atkins, Mantronix and Arthur Baker — emerged through noisy and apparent on his initial single record, Gez Varley Presents Tony Montana. Bayou Paradis made an appearance in springtime 2001.
