As well as being super busy mixing and co. producing the above, Luke has also been working on a solo album, entitled "the Difference Engine."
Around 90 percent finished, the album will feature the vocal talents of Robert Owens, DJ Heather, Honey Dijon, and newcomers Natalie Brooms and Adam Tindsley.
Following the styles of Luke's DJ sets, the album is a nod to early Mr Fingers/house albums.
Luke has also been co - producing an album with Chicago cohort Tim Shumaker, of Home and Garden fame.
Under the guise of This Modern Dance, Tim and Luke have been working with various Chicago musicians, producing an album of electronica, heavily influenced by their old school heroes. Brian Eno, Japan and David Sylvian, to name a few. Look out for a series of very LTD EPs , with collectable artwork.
And to round up the news, Luke has been co- producing, what is set to be one of the most talked about electronic projects of this year.
Working alongside his co - producer Arthur Jeffes (his father was the founder of the highly respected Penguin Cafe.) and both working alongside a group of selected musicians, the pair are producing an album for Crosstown rebels owner , and set to be superstar DJ, Damian Lazarus. The album is very much under wraps at the moment, but expect something very very different.
Luke is also continuing to kick up a storm worldwide with his highly originally DJ style, taking his influences from al genres of dance both old and new. Playing minimal, house, techno, disco, funk and mid tempo weirdness. Currently holding down 2 residencies , one @ the AKA in London, where Luke plays for 9 hours, covering 4 decades of dance music.
The other @ Cafe Borsa in Italy alongside fellow residents DJ Rocca and Italian legend , Daniel Baldelli. | |
