| Info: | * LUKE FAIR (Bedrock, Yoshitoshi)
w/ Sultan (Yoshitoshi, MTL)
"
His first exposure to club culture was being hired as a busboy at Toronto's legendary, now-defunct Industry Nightclub. It was there that he refined his ear for all forms of dance music, and made the decision to give DJing and producing a shot after hearing sets every weekend from legends such as Derrick Carter, David Morales, Roger Sanchez and Cevin Fisher. Within 4 months, he went from being a busboy, to the club's sound and lighting engineer, to being asked by co-owner and Toronto legend, DJ Matt C, to man the opening dj slot on Saturday nights. He happily accepted and did it right up until Industry shut their doors for good in August 2000.
Over the past few years, Luke has garnered attention for his extremely diverse and genre-crossing studio efforts. From dubbed-out house to melodic progressive, his tracks have been played by DJs from all across the dance music spectrum. Everyone from Sasha to David Morales and The Plump DJs, all have included Luke's production in their sets. Pete Tong has featured numerous Luke Fair productions on his world famous BBC Radio 1 'Essential Selection' show.
Luke continues to work tirelessly in the studio. In 2005 his remixes of Agent 001's 'Faakson' and Momu's 'The Dive' have hit stores, as well as a diverse 4-track EP on Bedrock.
