Dragonette - Let It Go (Laidback Luke Remix)
Born in the Philippines, raised in the Netherlands, as a kid
Luke loved guitars, graffiti, house and hip-hop, taking the ‘laid back’ tag
from Snoop Dogg’s ‘Gin & Juice’. He had a mentor in Dobre (Chocolate Puma)
and by 1996 was releasing tracks, remixing for established artists and DJing
professionally. He even beat a Dutch DMC champ in battle.Performing and
producing relentlessly and innovating musically as an artist like nobody else
has propelled Luke and his superhuman fusion of hyper drive house step &
ghetto jack trance bass to stratospheric new heights over the last couple of
years. In 2010, he's already remixed Wynter Gordon's 'Dirty Talk', as well as
Ferry Corsten, Calvin Harris and Moby, and his own projects, like 'Till
Tonight' feat. Jonathan Mendelsohn, and 'Turbulence' by Luke and Steve Aoki
feat. Lil Jon, have gone global. There have been three nominations for Luke in
the Beatport Music Awards – and an International Dance Music Award (IDMA) gong
in the Best House/Garage Track category for his work on ‘Leave The World
Behind’. So what more can the new decade bring for our r-evolutionary rebel?
Well, with the crazy energy that he conveys and the martial arts that he
practises, rest assured it will be out of this world. Yes, our fresh-faced
superhero has good 'kung fu', always keeping an ear to the ground while his
creativity rockets skyward. Luke, we salute you!
