Chris Lum April 30, 2004

As a producer Lum has quietly produced more than 60 projects in the last 2 years. Fans of his music appreciate the ever-present funk that he brings to his craft. Whether it be tracks or songs, garage to tech house, he manages to keep the dance floor aesthetic in tact. A peek into his discography reveals some the hottest underground cuts of the last 2 years. Records like "Big Tool" on Tango have been staples in the crates of today's biggest DJ's. On any given night his productions can be heard from the likes of DJ Dan, Mark Farina, Youssef, Lottie and Danny Rampling. Other titles such as his 2003 Grammy nominated remix of Jill Scott's "He Loves Me", are destined to be played for the next decade. In an age of hype, trend and purchased celebrity, Lum prides himself on being an artist with the ability to remain true to his roots while demonstrating commercial viability. Listen to his works and you will hear the influences that fuel his creativity. Funk based rhythms, Afro-Latin percussion, R&B melodies and New Wave sounds give his work a unique place in an industry mired in mediocrity. In addition to his abilities as a producer, Lum is also a songwriter. As a producer, he understands what a good and honest song can do to people's souls. It is the marriage of these two components that will ensure Lum a consistent place in the minds of an ever-restless market.

As a DJ, Lum has proven that his sound can move crowds of all sizes. Spanning the globe in recent years, he has soaked in various dance floor cultures like a sponge. His skills have placed him in front of crowds in the UK, Spain, France, Australia, Canada, Mexico and throughout the United States. Lum has been a working DJ for 12 years and in that time has seen many sounds come and go. But one thing always remains the same...People love rhythm and movement and they just love to have fun: which is the exact vibe he brings to each set he plays. Whether it be at The Southport Weekender in the UK (2001 and 2002) Field Day and Home nightclub in Sydney (2003) or Pacha in the Canary Islands (2002), Lum always drops music that makes people want to dance and that HE himself feels. Bringing his love of many styles of house, Lum is able to play sets spanning the array of house. Funky, rhythmic, dirty, melodic and groove are phrases that been uttered from his fan base. It is Lum's diversity of sounds and skills as a smooth technician that has given many a dance floor sweaty nights. It is this combination that makes Lum a sure bet for any promoter in the know.
