Biography

 

As a kid, Freddie Lucas’ musical interests lay with Nirvana’s grunge and the more punky rock from the Peppers. Especially the groovy bass-lines played by Flea had a major impact on his emerging musical taste. When Freddie grew older his tastes changed with him; from guitar riffs via hard style, to techno. From the moment he heard Changes of Life, an old school minimal record by Jeff Mills, he was hooked on techno and he hasn´t looked back since. He borrowed his first decks from a friend and started buying vinyl.

Since then Freddie Lucas has developed a nose for groovy new tracks. Combined with his technical skill, this allows him to constantly expand his horizon and let his inspiration guide him to new levels of groove. Though his sound is still evolving, there are certain traits that characterize Freddie’s style.  In his own words: “I want to combine the warmth and rolling grooves of tech-house, with the long breaks and mean bass lines of (minimal-) techno, so I guess you can call it minimal-house, if you like.” But whatever tag you put on his style, when you place him on stage, he will fill the room to the broom with a constant flow of energy and beats (not necessarily in that order). Since the summer of 2009 Freddie made the move to producing his own music and his first tracks got very positive reactions from the dance floor.

Being an unrelenting perfectionist Freddie keeps remixing and and editing his productions and still refuses to release any of them into the wild. Because of this reluctance, expectations for his first release are high and get higher every time he performs another great set.
