          Bill Laswell (born February 12, in Salem, Illinois and raised in Albion, Michigan) is an American bassist, producer and record label owner.

          He is married to Ethiopian singer Gigi.

          Laswell ranks among the most prolific of musicians, being involved in hundreds of recordings with many musicians from all over the world. Laswell's music draws upon many different genres, most notably funk, various world music, jazz, dub and ambient styles.

          He has also played or produced music from the noisier, more aggressive end of the rock spectrum, like hardcore punk and metal.

          According to music critic Chris Brazier, "Laswell’s pet concept is 'collision music' which involves bringing together musicians from wildly divergent but complementary spheres and seeing what comes out."[1] The credo of one record label run by Laswell, and which typifies much of his work, is “Nothing Is True, Everything Is Permitted”.
