This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Lunatic Calm''' were an English electronic music group formed in 1996. Despite a wide-ranging sound palette, the group was best known for their high impact, industrial-tinged [[big beat]] compositions.

==History==
<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.voxonline.com/alternative/lunatic_calm/lcint.htm|title=Interview with Lunatic Calm|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20051029224620/http://www.voxonline.com/alternative/lunatic_calm/lcint.htm|archivedate=29 October 2005|df=dmy-all))</ref>
Formed in 1996 and composed of [[Simon Shackleton|Simon "sHack" Shackleton]] and Howard "Howie" Saunders, they released two well received albums, as well as several singles and a wide range of remixes. The two had known each other since an early age, and prior to forming Lunatic Calm, they also played in several bands with [[Thom Yorke]] ([[Radiohead]] frontman), namely [[Headless Chickens (UK band)|Headless Chickens]] and Flicker Noise.

==Metropol (1997)==
Their debut album ''Metropol'' was often compared to the works of [[The Prodigy]] and other bands, although it ranged from offbeat and psychedelic [[trip hop]] to heavy turbo-charged [[big beat]]. Record company MCA failed to support the band and they switched their attentions to the American market where they enjoyed a series of successful tours with other groups including [[Crystal Method]]. The most notable track from that album, and the one for which the group remains best known, is "Leave You Far Behind". This track has appeared on numerous movie soundtracks including ''[[The Matrix]]'', ''[[Charlie's Angels (2000 film)|Charlie's Angels]]'', and ''[[Mortal Kombat Annihilation]]'', also including The Crow in 1998–1999.  A number of Lunatic Calm's tracks were used on video games, and the group did numerous [[remixes]] for various artists including [[Bush (British band)|Bush]], DJ Scissorkicks, and [[Curve (band)|Curve]]. The production equipment included an Atari ST, Akai S1000, Roland SH-101, Roland D-20, Nord Rack, Novation SuperNova II, Novation Bass Station, Alesis Quadraverb, Lexicon Reverb Signal Processor, Gibson and Fender electric guitars and a Mackie 16-channel, 4-Bus Mixer.<ref>https://www.flickr.com/photos/157635647@N03/53455717803/in/datetaken-public/</ref>

==Breaking Point (2002) and disbanding==
The group's second album, ''Breaking Point'' was released in 2002, after several years of wrangling with record companies, and with little to no promotion. As the album was due to be released, the record label City of Angels went bankrupt. Without label support the band were unable to continue and Lunatic Calm disbanded in 2003. In Simon Shackleton's words: "There was no label support at all, a complete failure to promote or help in any way with either album, so everything we did we did ourselves. After a while, we simply ran out of energy and funds having been burnt badly on both albums."<ref>https://www.flickr.com/photos/157635647@N03/53456016640/in/datetaken-public/</ref>

== Aftermath ==
((unreferenced section|date=October 2020))

Simon Shackleton has been highly active as a solo producer and DJ ever since, operating primarily under the name '''Elite Force''', but also under aliases such as '''Killer Elite''', '''Futurecore''', '''Double Black''', '''pHrack R''' and '''Zodiac Cartel'''. He has run labels such as U&A Recordings (2006–present) and the Fused & Bruised imprint between 1996 and 2002, and is often cited as one of the leading proponents of the emergent Tech-Funk movement, fusing [[House music|house]], [[Breakbeat|breaks]], [[Electro music|Electro]] and [[Techno]]. Some of his songs (both remixes and new tracks) have appeared on the Crystal Method remix albums, ''[[Community Service (album)|Community Service]]'' and ''[[Community Service II]]'' amongst others. He is currently recording an album as Simon Shackleton which is scheduled for release in early 2016 and has become a regular performer and attendee at the Burning Man Festival in Nevada each summer.

Howie is now one half of DoubleDose, a music production and sound design partnership he set up in 2004 with BAFTA award winner Nick Ryan, devising multimedia marketing campaigns, live event productions and sonic branding for companies such as Nokia, Shell, Ernst & Young, Ford, Mazda, Land Rover, Intel and Formula One motor racing across Europe, North America & Asia Pacific. Howie is also a Director at AudioFuel, which launched in December 2008 and offers music that is custom-composed for runners and personal fitness training programs.
