Zonal

Zonal is a UK electronic and industrial group made up of Kevin Richard Martin and Justin Broadrick. It begins as a side project of Techno Animal, the duo’s long-running collaboration from the early 1990s to the mid-2000s, in which they develop a harsh blend of industrial music with dub, breakbeat and hip hop influences.

The project starts in 2000 with a limited CDr, The Quatermass Project, issued on Avalanche Recordings as one of that label’s first two releases. It is intended as the first part of a multi-release set, but no further instalments appear. The project continues as an extension of Martin and Broadrick’s shared work, taking their sound further into ambient, industrial and electronic territory.
