Slam are pioneers of the UK electronic music scene, formed by Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle in Glasgow, Scotland. Their creative partnership began in the late 1980s, and they quickly became influential in shaping techno and house music both locally and globally. They co-founded the seminal Soma Quality Recordings label in 1991, which has released music from artists such as Daft Punk, Jeff Mills, and Funk D’Void, in addition to their own rich discography.

With a sound characterized by driving beats, innovative production, and a keen sense for dancefloor dynamics, Slam have released numerous acclaimed albums, including "Headstates," "Alien Radio," "Human Response," "Reverse Proceed," and "Machine Cut Noise." Their singles, such as "Positive Education" and "Lifetimes," remain iconic within the genre. Slam’s DJ sets are celebrated for their relentless energy, creativity, and ability to traverse genres while always keeping the club moving.

They have played legendary venues and festivals worldwide, including Pressure in Glasgow—a night they’ve hosted since 1998—Berghain, Fabric, and renowned events such as Sonar and Awakenings. As remixers and collaborators, Slam have worked with a wide range of artists, reimagining tracks for Underworld, Laurent Garnier, Josh Wink, and many more. Their commitment to electronic music culture continues to influence new generations of producers and clubbers, securing their status as enduring innovators and ambassadors for techno.
