Luke became somewhat of a house legend, through his work with 'the Freaks' and plethora of releases on Derrick Carters 'Classic Recordings' label. More recently his tune 'the creeps' destroyed ibiza and was remixed by everyone from steve bug to justin robertson! His sound takes in every thing from jacking beats, disco and techno with lashings of acid house thrown in for good effect, and his recent releases on labels such as Rekids (check out his tune ghouls) and the very cool Crosstown Rebels imprint show him at his best, bizzare wonky fat electronic grooves designed to rock the dancefloor!

"Returning to my birthplace to play records is always an exciting event for me, I only wish it happened more often, and it also means my Dad gets to come out and have a dance..." – Luke Solomon
