LUKE SLATER [Mote Evolver / UK / London]

SP V2.0
Luke Slater is a very prolific recording artist working
under several pseudonyms making a wide variety of
electronic music.
His story begins at the Mi Price record store, Croydon,
where he worked alongside Colin Dale (no introductions
necessary) and Alan Sage (recording partner-to-be) and
moved on to Jelly Jam Records of Brighton where his
recording career really began.
Luke‘s vinyl debut was unleashed in 1989 under the
Translucent moniker entitled „Momentary Vision“.
Released only as a white label it stood out for the
fact that it was Detroit influenced and at the time the
dancefloors rocked to the sound of the breakbea(s)
t and so was a brave move that did not go unnoticed
by the underground record clientele.
After a stream of further 12“s Morganistic was next,
a beautifully chilled track, „In The Shadow“, released
on the obscure UK indie label Irdial. It was the label‘s
most successful release and marked Luke‘s arrival as a
leading light on the then blossoming UK scene alongside
Black Dog, A.R.T, AFX Twin and B12.
However, it was not until his link-up with Peacefrog
in 1993 when Luke began his X-Tront series and his
Planetary Assault Systems outputs through which he
became widely known and praised for, resulting in Luke
being heralded as the UK torchbearer for the Detroit
techno sound.
Further compounding the fact that Luke had really gained
promotion to the Techno premier league. Luke plays City
Festival Sunday 4th of May.
