::: Laidback Luke Interview
Holland’s beloved house music-loving homeboy, Laidback Luke, is on an international mission to rock clubs, win hearts and top charts. A producer and DJ with immense talent, tonnes of spirit and a steely determination to succeed, he has been on a worldwide search for the ultimate in dance floor energy since the mid-1990s. “Music is an amazing tool that can evoke powerful memories and emotions,” says Luke with a smile. “And I will not rest until I’ve given my best: I want to share as much music as possible with as many people as possible.” And with an incredibly impressive discography of 100+ recordings and a DJ diary that takes him from his studio near Amsterdam to clubs all over the world, it would seem that Luke is well on the way to achieve his goals...

::: Photo Album » Essential WMC 2008 » 2.3 Om @ Karu & Y [Miami]

For night three it was off to our friends from San Francisco's bash, namely the Om Records party. For the second year, the notorious house imprint from the left-coast was hosting their MASSIVE event at the gorgeous Karu & Y. Boasting a river surrounding the outdoor main terrace and four other rooms of sound each uniquely decorated, this year's event promised to be bigger and better than ever. With an all-star lineup featuring Mark Farina, DJ Heather, DJ Colette, Andy Caldwell, Mike Monday, Chuck Love, Olivier Desmet, Samantha James and many many more, the thousands in attendance were completely satisfied with some serious house beats. Most of our time was spent soaking up the fresh air of the main terrace as Andy Caldwell, Rithma, a stunning live performance from Samantha James, Colette, and Mark Farina did their thing. I don't know if it's the fact that it's outdoors, or the palm trees scatterred around, but there's something definitively Miami about this event, and as such has made it an absolute must in our calendar every year. Much thanks to Gunnar and Lindsay at Om for being wonderful hosts and we'll see you next year!
