The Pop Group's Mark Stewart dies aged 62

"Knowing Mark, working with him, laughing with him and thinking with him was like nothing else", the statement from Mute read.

"His hugely confident and dominating presence was coupled with a sensitive, warm, creative, curious, intelligent and hilarious nature. "He was always, vocally, on the side of the oppressed, and did all he could to ensure people were treated correctly. "He questioned every single thing that was said and in his political beliefs and in support of others, Mark was not just looking out for the underdog, he was intent that everyone got a voice, everyone got a chance."

Bristol music collective Massive Attack paid their respects in a tweet which read: "Post punk pioneer and original chief rocker. RIP Mark Stewart. Bristol will never be the same."
