A Darker Disco With Luke Solomon - Super Sunday

April sees world famous House Music legend Luke Solomon gracing the decks, at adarker disco Luke will be blowing the doors of the cinema room on easter Super Sunday with one of his legendary sets.

Luke is the guy behind Music For Freaks, Classic Recordings and the band Freaks (a re-work of their underground classic from 2004, ‘The Creeps.’ ‘The Creeps [Get On The Dancefloor]’ was released by Ministry of Sound, becoming one of the summer anthems, the most downloaded-tune in the history of DJDownload.com and was licensed to major television advertising campaigns)

Luke Solomon has had a successful career spanning almost 17 years.


He has worked his way up through the ranks gaining recognition from all different fields of electronica and dance.

Starting in the early 90's he went from record shop attended to securing a job Freetown records working with artists such as Felix the Housecat, Masters at Work, Jamie Principle and Marshall Jefferson. He then went on to work with Roger Sanchez at Narcotic in the mid 90's. This led to his long lasting friendship and partnership with Derrick Carter and the setting up of their legendary label, Classic.

Through all of this Luke has retained a successful production career with partner Justin Harris, as Freak's, and as a recently established solo artist, recording for Radioslave's Rekids amongst others.
Luke's debut album, 'The Difference Engine' was release in February '08 on Rekids, and a new album is due later in '09. In the meantime, Solomon has produced Damian Lazarus' new album for Get Physical to be released in early '09

Luke Solomon has been a fundamental part of the dance scene for over a decade
now and his contribution over the years has been nothing short of phenomenal. Now
in 2007, his sound is still evolving and his bizarre take on the new underground
house sound is very exciting, a master of the groove and never afraid of a risk, his
latest productions are arguably his finest work to date.

Luke began his professional DJ career in 1990 with a residency at Middlesex
University, which is where he met cohort Justin Harris. After a spell working in a local
record shop and as a part-time fishmonger he got a job at Freetown records, which
led him to long lasting relationships with Rob Mello and Kenny Hawkes. Rob took
Luke under his studio wing and taught him the ropes, together they went on to
release for both Freetown and Prescription Underground – it was through Prescription
that he got introduced to a certain Derrick L. Carter. A bond was immediately formed
and through their passion for House music and crazy late nights they formed the
legendary Classic Recordings.

Luke also formed a recording partnership with Justin Harris and are the masterminds
behind their band Freaks and their own label Music For Freaks, 3 studio albums
followed. This year Luke and the band enjoyed a top ten hit with the re-release of
their classic 'The Creeps' through DATA. As well as that Luke has been working on
his own solo productions and has recently released singles through Crosstown
Rebels, Gallery, Icon, Cajual and of course Rekids with whom he will be releasing his
solo album 'The Difference Engine' in January 2008. He also has a monthly residency
at AKA called Little Creatures and Moxa Club in Mantova, Italy.
