@@@ "It's with great sadness that we announce the untimely passing of Mark Bell of LFO who died last week from complications after an operation. Mark's family friends request privacy at this difficult time," Warp wrote in a statement.

Bell and Gez Varley founded LFO in 1988. The group released three albums from 1991 to 2003 and had several top singles including "LFO," "We Are Back," and "What Is House." Varley left the group in 1996 leaving Bell to carry on alone. As a producer, Bell has worked with artists like Bj rk and Depeche Mode.

Detroit techno producer Claude Young told Beatportal that Bell was an "amazing producer" and "an extremely pleasant guy to be around.

"His early work along with Gez Varley as LFO inspired all of us in Detroit back in the day," Young added. "We never heard anything like it, the music was impressive and futuristic. It pushed all of us to try harder and to go further with sound. And his later solo work are blueprints for modern day techno. I feel like we lost another brother today."

We send our thoughts and prayers to the loved ones of Mark Bell.
