This month Luke Solomon enters the mêlée at Dojo. Luke has been in the scene for over twelve years and has mastered every job title in the business; from DJ, drummer, producer and label boss to much respected musician. Highly rated by many including Derrick Carter, Kenny Hawkes and Rob Mello, Luke’s collaboration work has been some of his most outstanding. Not forgetting his band ‘The Freaks’ who are currently in the studio recording their 4th album. His blend of House and Techno has been exciting many people recently, making him extremely hot property already this year he has spanked dance floors from New Zealand to Berlin. We are very happy to have found a space in his diary to add Bristol to that list.

"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
