Ultramarine are an English electronic music duo, formed in 1989 by Ian Cooper and Paul Hammond. Their work blends elements of techno, house and ambient music with acoustic instrumentation, the influence of the 1970s Canterbury scene, and other eclectic sources.[1] They are best known for their 1991 album Every Man and Woman Is a Star, reissued on Rough Trade the following year.
