Formed in 1998, Landau was originally a union of four songwriter/ producers geared towards writing melodic electronic music. Their earliest influences included the 1990’s Warp Scene, trip hop, drum & bass and western art music.The groups underlying goal and aesthetic has always been the seamless blend of acoustic and electronic sound. Landau’s sound has often been compared to Plaid, Autechre, The Cinematic Orchestra, and Matmos amongst others.

After releasing a series of offerings on Labels in England, Canada and the US the band released its first international debut on Merck Records, entitled The Epic Compromise. Since its release in 2004, the record has gained much international attention and praise.
