LUKE SOLOMON
(Classic / Rekids / Crosstown Rebel)
No-one could debate Luke Solomon’s dance music credentials. From setting up the seminal label Classic Recordings with Derrick Carter to taking quirky house to the UK Top 10 and international charts, with his band Freaks, to DJing around the globe and performing live, Luke has been there for many of the more interesting 4/4 moments of the last decade.
A gig with Derrick Carter in the 90s led the two to become friends, after which Classic Recordings was born. For 9 years, the label introduced the world to the likes of DJ Sneak, Tiefschwarz, Isolee and Freeform 5 and garnered a cult following.
As freaks Luke has had a UK top ten also found themselves remixing the likes of Alison Limerick, Pulp, Damon Alban, Kasabian, The Streets & Duran Duran.
As a solo artist he has had releases on a variety of labels to include the very respected Crosstown Rebels. His 1st artist album “The Difference Engine” was released in 2008 on Radio Slave’s much applauded Rekids label to much acclaim. This album led Luke to team up with Damian Lazarus on his own artist album and Luke co-wrote and co-produced a selection of tracks.
Luke continues to DJ around the world at the likes of Panorama Bar, Fabric, D-Edge and this year will be releasing new material from Freaks, and a second album as a solo artist.
Luke's credentials are most certainly not to be argued with. We can’t wait for him to blow the roof of Light Bar.
