Sputniks Down were a Scottish band, made up of Andy Blue, Martin Healy and David Roy. Signed to Edinburgh's Human Condition Records, Sputniks Down (named after a song by Lou Barlow's Folk Implosion) were a three piece from Bishopbriggs on the outskirts of Glasgow. They produced instrumental electronica based on samplers, guitars, bass and keyboards.

After a handful of gigs, they were signed to Edinburgh's Human Condition record label. In January 2000, their debut EP Monotone Mountain was recorded by Tony Doogan at CaVa Studios. In 2001 they released their debut album, Much Was Decided Before You Were Born. The songs "Atonement" and "Mie Scattering" featured artists from El Hombre Trajaedo and Long Fin Killie (Luke Sutherland).

Between 2003 and 2003, they played gigs with bands including Life Without Buildings, American Analog Set, El Hombre Trajeado, and Fly Pan Am. After a tour of Greece in 2003, the band split up.
