Listen Dj

About Me

Listen Dj aka Luke Heyes has been mixing Drum and Bass music for nine solid years and has persistently remained loyal to the scene. Through a brief introduction to 'jungle' via a dusty old mixtape crafted by the ever-nimble fingers of close friend Dj Revolver (Flex Records), it was invevitable that the underground sound would later play a big part in his life. Raves were frequented, turntables purchased, records collected, skills aquired and by a stroke of good luck, Listen moved to Bristol to undertake studies, underestimating the music mecca status that the South West city carried. It was a case of living and breathing drum and bass within the Bristol bubble, and having the priviledge of being surrounded by so much passion and raw talent, the love for the scene continued to blossom. It wasn't long before Listen was running popular house parties and recieving bookings admist the music rat race. In 2004, he worked for Chemical Records, meeting some influential and important people and continued to support the drum and bass sound. In 2005, Listen decided to return back home to the southern fringes of Yorkshire and begin a residency at 'Soundwarz', Doncaster's finest drum and bass event. Since then, on a regular basis, Listen Dj has supported a host of local Dj's such as Easy D, Double O, Dj Revolver, Lundy and Dj Sweet. At bigger 'Soundwarz' events, he has supported the likes of T.K, Phobia, Aggers, Steppa, Bassline Smith, Total Science, Doc Scott, Artificial Intelligence, Jack Frost, L-Double, Bailey, Shock, Nicky Blackmarket and EPOC. More recently, he has supported Stav and Decade (get ready) at the up and coming 'Rewind' event in Worksop and is a member of Hustle Audio Recordings. With a unique, progressive style that collaborates drum and bass across the whole spectrum, a big advocation for seamless mixing and a desire to roll tunes out till the last bar, a typical set from Listen is a definite ear pleaser.For Bookings - [email protected].
