Luke Slater is an English electronic musician, DJ and record producer, who has concentrated on techno since the beginning of the 1990s. He achieved break through commercial success with his tracks "Love" (1997) and "All Exhale" (1999).
Early life
Born in Reading and raised in Horley, Slater's early sound dalliances with his father's reel to reeltape recorder and his drumming stints led to work in local record shops, including Jelly Jam in Brighton. By 1988, Slater was immersed in the early acid house scene, DJing in London's Heavennightclub. ==Music==
